Construction and characterization of a recombinant invertebrate iridovirus

Virus Research, 2014
Chilo iridescent virus (CIV), officially named Insect iridescent virus 6 (IIV6), is the type species of the genus Iridovirus (family Iridoviridae). In this paper we constructed a recombinant CIV, encoding the green fluorescent protein (GFP). This recombinant can be used to investigate viral replication dynamics.

Novel Iridovirus in a Nautilus ( Nautilus Spp.) [PDF]

Journal of Veterinary Diagnostic Investigation, 2006
Intracytoplasmic inclusion bodies suggestive of iridovirus infection were observed in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues from a nautilus ( Nautilus spp.) that died without premonitory signs. Transmission electron microscopy revealed enveloped, hexagonal, viral particles that measured approximately 176 nm in diameter.

Structure of grouper iridovirus purine nucleoside phosphorylase [PDF]

Acta Crystallographica Section D Biological Crystallography, 2010
Purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) catalyzes the reversible phosphorolysis of purine ribonucleosides to the corresponding free bases and ribose 1-phosphate. The crystal structure of grouper iridovirus PNP (givPNP), corresponding to the first PNP gene to be found in a virus, was determined at 2.4 Å resolution.

LAMP for the rapid diagnosis of iridovirus in aquaculture

Aquaculture and Fisheries, 2022
Abstract Iridoviruses are DNA virus and have caused huge economic losses in the aquaculture industry. The aim of this study was to establish a colorimetric loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) protocol for the on-site detection of Singapore grouper iridovirus (SGIV).

Influence of Herbicide Exposure and Ranavirus Infection on Growth and Survival of Juvenile Red-Eared Slider Turtles (Trachemys scripta elegans)

Viruses, 2021
Ranaviruses are an important wildlife pathogen of fish, amphibians, and reptiles. Previous studies have shown that susceptibility and severity of infection can vary with age, host species, virus strain, temperature, population density, and presence of ...

Trace Amounts of Ranavirus Detected in Common Musk Turtles (Sternotherus odoratus) at a Site Where the Pathogen Was Previously Common

Animals, 2023
Ranaviruses are global multi-host pathogens that infect ectothermic vertebrates and cause mass mortality events in some species. In 2021–2022, we surveyed two species of aquatic turtles in a Virginia site where previous research found ranavirus in ...

First detection of an invertebrate iridovirus in the daphnid, Daphnia pulex

Acta virologica, 2022
Daphnia pulex from a small pond were infected by an iridescence virus. Infected daphnia differed from healthy ones due to the intense characteristic pink reflected iridescent color. Infected individuals collected in the field died in laboratory as a result of the iridoviral infection.

In Situ Hybridization and RT‐PCR Detection of Nervous Necrosis Virus in Fourfinger Threadfin, Eleutheronema tetradactylum, in Taiwan

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Between April and July 2020, suspected outbreaks of nervous necrosis virus (NNV) infection were observed in fourfinger threadfin (Eleutheronema tetradactylum) fingerling hatcheries in Pingtung County, southern Taiwan. Affected fish exhibited spiral swimming behaviour and abdominal distension, resulting in mortality rates between 50% and 100 ...
