A de novo Assembly of the Common Frog (Rana temporaria) Transcriptome and Comparison of Transcription Following Exposure to Ranavirus and Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Amphibians are experiencing global declines and extinctions, with infectious diseases representing a major factor. In this study we examined the transcriptional response of metamorphic hosts (common frog, Rana temporaria) to the two most important ...

Viruses, 2022 Ranaviruses have been involved in amphibian mass mortality events worldwide. Effective screening to control this pathogen is essential; however, current sampling methods are unsuitable for the detection of subclinical infections.

Ranavirus infections associated with skin lesions in lizards [PDF]
Veterinary Research, 2013 Abstract Ranaviral disease in amphibians has been studied intensely during the last decade, as associated mass-mortality events are considered to be a global threat to wild animal populations. Several studies have also included other susceptible ectothermic vertebrates (fish and reptiles), but only very few cases of ranavirus infections in ...

Frontiers in Immunology, 2021 The global amphibian declines are compounded by ranavirus infections such as Frog Virus 3 (FV3), and amphibian tadpoles more frequently succumb to these pathogens than adult animals.

Largemouth Bass Virus Infection Induced Non-Apoptotic Cell Death in MsF Cells
Viruses, 2022 Largemouth bass virus (LMBV), belonging to the genus Ranavirus, causes high mortality and heavy economic losses in largemouth bass aquaculture. In the present study, a novel cell line, designated as MsF, was established from the fin of largemouth bass ...

Genomic sequence of a ranavirus isolated from short-finned eel (Anguilla australis) [PDF]
, 2016 The short-finned eel ranavirus (SERV) was isolated from short-finned eel imported into Italy from New Zealand. Phylogenomic analyses revealed that SERV is a unique member of the genus Ranavirus, family Iridoviridae, branching at the base of the tree near

The presence of amphibian ranavirus in Virginia warm water fish hatchery ponds [PDF]
, 2009 Amphibian declines have been occurring world wide over the past several decades. Infectious disease and environmental changes have been implicated as the causative agents in these declines.

Poor biosecurity could lead to disease outbreaks in animal populations. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Human-mediated disease outbreaks due to poor biosecurity practices when processing animals in wild populations have been suspected. We tested whether not changing nitrile gloves between processing wood frog (Lithobates sylvaticus) tadpoles and co-housing

Context-dependent effects of ranaviral infection on northern leopard frog life history traits.
PLoS ONE, 2010 Pathogens have important effects on host life-history traits, but the magnitude of these effects is often strongly context-dependent. The outcome of an interaction between a host and an infectious agent is often associated with the level of stress ...
