First detection of infectious spleen and kidney necrosis virus (ISKNV) associated with massive mortalities in farmed tilapia in Africa [PDF]

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, 2019
SummaryIn late 2018, unusual patterns of very high mortality (>50% production) were reported in intensive tilapia cage culture systems across Lake Volta in Ghana. Samples of fish and fry were collected and analysed from two affected farms between October 2018 and February 2019.

Outbreak investigation attributes Infectious spleen and kidney necrosis virus as a necessary cause of a mortality epidemic in farmed grouper (Epinephelus spp.) in Bali, Indonesia

open access: yesAquaculture Reports, 2021
In 2016, famers reported mass mortality events in hybrid grouper within 2–4 weeks following transfer to sea cages on the northern coast of Bali. The objective was to obtain an aetiological diagnosis using a broad range of traditional and emerging ...

Differential gene expression profile in spleen of mandarin fish Siniperca chuatsi infected with ISKNV, derived from suppression subtractive hybridization [PDF]

open access: yesDiseases of Aquatic Organisms, 2006
To study the interaction between an invading virus and its host, we investigated differential gene expression in mandarin fish Siniperca chuatsi experimentally infected with infectious spleen and kidney necrosis virus (ISKNV). Subtractive cDNA libraries were constructed by suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) from spleens of mock- and ISKNV ...

Fish Poxviruses on the Rise: Prospects for Aquatic Health

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fish poxviruses are increasingly recognised as emerging pathogens of fish and should be considered in cases of unexplained gill or skin pathology. Carp edema virus (CEV), the causative agent of koi sleepy disease in common carp and koi (Cyprinus carpio), represents the first known example.

Viral Pathogens Threatening Cage‐Cultured Nile Tilapia in Lake Victoria: Epidemiology, Emerging Risks and Integrated Health Management Strategies

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The rapid expansion of cage culture for Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) in Lake Victoria is central to food security and profitable development in East Africa. Nevertheless, viral conditions affect the sustainability of this sector, with significant imbalances in livelihood, trade and aquaculture adaptability.

Molecular characterisation of grouper iridovirus isolates from Peninsular Malaysia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Grouper Iriovirus (GIV) is one of the most devastating viral diseases of marine and cultured groupers worldwide. In the current study, 5 presumptive Malaysian GIV isolates were characterised through PCR amplification of the major capsid protein (MCP ...

Fish health, environmental contaminants, and disease management in Ghanaian aquaculture: A systematic review

open access: yesJournal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Fish health significantly influences aquaculture productivity, sustainability, food security, and public health. Despite Ghana's rapid aquaculture expansion, the sector remains constrained by widespread disease outbreaks and environmental threats. This systematic review synthesizes existing literature (2010–2024) to comprehensively assess fish

Large-Scale Microcarrier Culture of Chinese Perch Brain Cell for Viral Vaccine Production in a Stirred Bioreactor

open access: yesVaccines, 2021
Mandarin fish (Siniperca chuatsi) is one of the important cultured fish species in China. Infectious spleen and kidney necrosis virus (ISKNV) and Siniperca Chuatsi rhabdovirus (SCRV) have hindered the development of mandarin fish farming industry ...
