First record of ranavirus (Ranavirus sp.) in Siberia, Russia [PDF]

Herpetozoa, 2022
Ranaviruses are a group of double-strand DNA viruses that infect fish, amphibians and reptiles. These viruses are responsible for mass fish and amphibian mortality events worldwide, both in the wild and at fish and amphibian farms. The number of detected

Viral genomic methylation and the interspecies evolutionary relationships of ranavirus. [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens
Ranaviruses are capable of infecting both wild and farmed fish, amphibians, and reptiles, leading to significant economic losses and ecological risks. Currently, ranaviruses have been found in at least 175 species spanning six continents.

Global Patterns of Ranavirus Detections

Facets, 2021
Ranaviruses are emerging pathogens of poikilothermic vertebrates. In 2015 the Global Ranavirus Reporting System (GRRS) was established as a centralized, open access, online database for reports of the presence (and absence) of ranavirus around the globe.

Non-Lethal Detection of Ranavirus in Fish [PDF]

Viruses, 2023
Emergent infectious diseases have an increasing impact on both farmed animals and wildlife. The ability to screen for pathogens is critical for understanding host–pathogen dynamics and informing better management.

Emerging Threat of Ranavirus: Prevalence, Genetic Diversity, and Climatic Drivers of Ranavirus (Iridoviridae) in Ectothermic Vertebrates of Asia

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2023
IntroductionRanavirus disease, caused by viruses within the genus Ranavirus (Iridoviridae), is considered a globally emerging infectious disease linked to mass mortality events in both wild and cultured ectothermic vertebrates.

Is Xenopus laevis introduction linked with Ranavirus incursion, persistence and spread in Chile? [PDF]

PeerJ, 2023
Ranaviruses have been associated with amphibian, fish and reptile mortality events worldwide and with amphibian population declines in parts of Europe. Xenopus laevis is a widespread invasive amphibian species in Chile.

MONITORING RANAVIRUS-ASSOCIATED MORTALITY IN A DUTCH HEATHLAND IN THE AFTERMATH OF A RANAVIRUS DISEASE OUTBREAK

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 2016
The ranaviruses are an emerging group of viruses that infect amphibians, fish, and reptiles. Although ranaviruses have not been linked to extinctions, emergence in amphibian communities has resulted in population declines for some species. We present the results of ranavirus-associated mortality in a Dutch national park in the aftermath of an outbreak ...

Transmission of ranavirus between ectothermic vertebrate hosts. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Transmission is an essential process that contributes to the survival of pathogens. Ranaviruses are known to infect different classes of lower vertebrates including amphibians, fishes and reptiles.

Ranavirus: past, present and future [PDF]

Biology Letters, 2011
Emerging infectious diseases are a significant threat to global biodiversity. While historically overlooked, a group of iridoviruses in the genus Ranavirus has been responsible for die-offs in captive and wild amphibian, reptile and fish populations around the globe over the past two decades.

Prevalence of Ranavirus Infection in Three Anuran Species across South Korea

Viruses, 2022
To cope with amphibian die-offs caused by ranavirus, it is important to know the underlying ranavirus prevalence in a region. We studied the ranavirus prevalence in tadpoles of two native and one introduced anuran species inhabiting agricultural and ...
