Global Warming Affects the Pathogenesis of Important Fish Diseases in European Aquaculture

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 1, January 2026.
The effect of global warming on pathogens and their fish hosts that could exacerbate the negative outcomes for aquaculture. Changes in farming practices and the development of innovative mitigation tools may prove essential to cope with the effects and impacts of rising water temperatures on fish diseases in Europe.

Transcriptional program of Singapore grouper iridovirus

The FASEB Journal, 2006
Grouper iridovirus is a cause of serious systemic diseases, which result in the significant economic losses in aquaculture. In order to take more insights into grouper iridovirus and provide the fundamental basis for the further researches on this group of virus, we examined simultaneous expression measurements of nearly all predicted open reading ...

Characterization and Antibody Preparation of the Gene Products of Grouper Iridovirus ORF5L

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 5, Issue 6, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Grouper iridovirus (GIV) is a large DNA virus belonging to the family Iridoviridae and genus Ranavirus. It consists of 139,793 base pairs (bp) and 120 open reading frames (ORFs). GIV is a key pathogen of farmed fish worldwide. The functional roles of viral genes must be determined for the early diagnosis, treatment and prevention of viral ...

In Vitro and In Vivo Toxicity and Antiviral Activity of Rhein Derivatives Against Nervous Necrosis Virus

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 5, Issue 6, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Rhein has been demonstrated to exhibit antiviral activity against nervous necrosis virus (NNV). As rhein coexists in plants with various structurally analogous natural derivatives and may acquire improved biochemical properties through chemical modification, this study investigated the potential of several natural and synthetic derivatives for

How do parasites and predators choose their victim? A trade‐off between quality and vulnerability across antagonistic interactions

Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 5, Page 2099-2115, October 2025.
ABSTRACT From blood‐sucking lice and food‐stealing gulls to pandemic‐inducing viruses and egg‐eating snakes: parasites and predators are ubiquitous in shaping ecology and evolution. Fundamental to these interactions is the way in which parasites and predators choose their victim. Here, I argue that a trade‐off between host quality and vulnerability can
