Development of eNA Sampling for Early Detection of Pathogens in On‐Farm Water Sources
We compare four water‐sampling methods for detecting microbial and viral eNA in livestock troughs and show all approaches effectively recover community profiles, supporting flexible, field‐ready surveillance of livestock pathogens. ABSTRACT Early detection of livestock pathogens is critical for mitigating risk and implementing timely control or ...

Screening of a long-term sample set reveals two Ranavirus lineages in British herpetofauna.
Reports of severe disease outbreaks in amphibian communities in mainland Europe due to strains of the common midwife toad virus (CMTV)-like clade of Ranavirus are increasing and have created concern due to their considerable population impacts.

Largemouth bass ranavirus: Current status and research progression
Largemouth bass ranavirus (LMBV) belongs to the Ranavirus genus of the Iridoviridae family and can infect numerous species of Percidae, such as largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides), smallmouth bass (Micropterus dolomieu) and bluegill (Lepomis macrochirus).

Amphibian populations worldwide face threats from emerging infectious diseases. We screened frog‐biting midges (Corethrella spp.) from Central and South America for Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis, Ranaviruses, and Trypanosoma spp. using qPCR. All three pathogens were detected, indicating that Corethrella may act as vectors and represent promising tools

ABSTRACT Aim Success in a biological invasion often depends on whether the non‐native species can disperse from its introduction site and spread across the invaded landscape. The alpine newt, Ichthyosaura alpestris, has achieved a widespread distribution in Britain in the last century, with new records continuously reported. The objective of this study

ICTV Virus Taxonomy Profile: Iridoviridae [PDF]
The Iridoviridae is a family of large, icosahedral viruses with double-stranded DNA genomes ranging in size from 103 to 220 kbp. Members of the subfamily Alphairidovirinae infect ectothermic vertebrates (bony fish, amphibians and reptiles), whereas ...

454-Pyrosequencing: A Molecular Battiscope for Freshwater Viral Ecology [PDF]
Viruses, the most abundant biological entities on the planet, are capable of infecting organisms from all three branches of life, although the majority infect bacteria where the greatest degree of cellular diversity lies.
