Ranavirus Taxonomy and Phylogeny [PDF]
, 2015 AbstractThe phylum Nucleocytoviricota, known informally as the Nucleocytoplasmic Large DNA Viruses (NCLDV), is a monophyletic assemblage of viruses that infect eukaryotes, ranging from single-celled organisms to humans, worldwide. The NCLDV phylum encompasses two classes (Megaviricetes, Pokkesviricetes), five orders (Pimascovirales, Imitervirales ...

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 ...

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.

Viruses, 2021 Ranaviruses are an important wildlife pathogen of fish, amphibians, and reptiles. Previous studies have shown that susceptibility and severity of infection can vary with age, host species, virus strain, temperature, population density, and presence of ...

Evidence for low prevalence of ranaviruses in Ontario, Canada’s freshwater turtle population [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 Background Ontario, Canada is home to eight native species of turtles; all eight are federally listed as Species At Risk, due to anthropogenic threats. However, until recently, reports of infectious disease have been lacking.

Ten years of ranavirus research (2010–2019): an analysis of global research trends
FACETS, 2021 Ranaviruses are large nucleocytoplasmic DNA viruses that infect ectothermic vertebrates. Here we report the results of a scientometric analysis of the field of ranavirology for the last 10 years.

Development and disease: how susceptibility to an emerging pathogen changes through anuran development. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Ranaviruses have caused die-offs of amphibians across the globe. In North America, these pathogens cause more amphibian mortality events than any other pathogen.

PLoS ONE, 2020 Ranaviruses are agents of disease, mortality and population declines in ectothermic vertebrates and emergences have been repeatedly linked to human activities. Ranaviruses in the common midwife toad ranavirus lineage are emerging in Europe.

Efficacy of select disinfectants at inactivating Ranavirus [PDF]
Diseases of Aquatic Organisms, 2009 Ranavirus can cause disease in reptiles and amphibians. Because survival time outside of a host remains uncertain, equipment must be disinfected to prevent transmission of ranaviruses. However, disinfectant efficacy against amphibian ranaviruses has not been investigated for chlorhexidine (Nolvasan), sodium hypochlorite (bleach), or potassium compounds.
