Immune-suppression by OsHV-1 viral infection causes fatal bacteraemia in Pacific oysters

Nature Communications, 2018
Pacific oyster mortality syndrome is a poorly understood cause of mortality in commercially important oyster species. Here, the authors use multiple infection experiments to show that the syndrome is caused by sequential infection by herpesvirus and ...

Thalassotalea crassostreae sp. nov., isolated from Pacific oyster

International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2017
A Gram-staining-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated LPB0090T, was isolated from the Pacific oyster, Crassostreagigas, collected from the Yeongheung Island, Korea (37° 15' 16.1″ N; 126° 29' 46.5″ E). The complete genome sequence of LPB0090T (accession number CP017689) was 3 861 670 bp long with a DNA G+C content of 38.8 mol%.
