High susceptibility of the endangered dusky gopher frog to ranavirus

Diseases of Aquatic Organisms, 2014
Amphibians are one of the most imperiled vertebrate groups, with pathogens playing a role in the decline of some species. Rare species are particularly vulnerable to extinction because populations are often isolated and exist at low abundance. The potential impact of pathogens on rare amphibian species has seldom been investigated.

Widespread Occurrence of Ranavirus in Pond-Breeding Amphibian Populations

EcoHealth, 2011
Ranaviruses are an emerging threat for many amphibian populations, yet their distribution in amphibian communities and the association of infection with possible stressors and species is not fully understood due to historically sparse surveillance. Agricultural practices that reduce the water quality of amphibian breeding habitats (e.g., cattle access ...

Evaluation and Application of Andrographolide Against Largemouth Bass Ranavirus

Fish & Shellfish Immunology
It is well-established that Largemouth bass ranavirus (LMBRaV) induces viral ulcerative syndrome, a highly transmissible and lethal viral disease afflicting largemouth bass aquaculture. Given the urgent need for available prevention and control methods, this study evaluated the antiviral activities of fifteen naturally occurring compounds derived from ...

Ranavirus and Its Impact on the Amphibian Population

Middle East Research Journal of Biological Sciences
Mass mortality of amphibians has occurred globally since at least the early 1990s from viral pathogens that are members of the genus Ranavirus, family Iridoviridae. This disease has a wide host range and with the movement of ranavirus-infected animals in commerce, ranaviruses have become an increasing threat to captive and wild populations, especially ...

First occurrence of Ranavirus in Scandinavian peninsula

Abstract Emerging infectious diseases (EIDs) pose a major threat to global amphibian populations, contributing to widespread mortality and species extinctions. Among EIDs, those caused by fungal infection pathogens Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis ( Bd

First Detection of Ranavirus Infection in Threatened Brazilian Anurans

Journal of Wildlife Diseases
Amphibians are the most threatened vertebrate group worldwide, with emerging infectious diseases playing an important role in their ongoing declines. Although the amphibian chytrid fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) has received considerable attention, viruses of the genus Ranavirus (Rv) remain less explored, particularly in South America.
