Renal Trichodinosis in the Japanese Rice Fish, Oryzias latipes: First Report and Phylogenetic Classification. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Investigation of a disease outbreak in a hobbyist's medaka (Oryzias latipes) collection led to the detection of Trichodina sp. in the kidney tubuli of individual fish. Based on this observation, a thorough clinical workup, including native microscopy, histopathology and molecular genetics, was conducted.

First Report of Snakehead Rhabdovirus-Like Novirhabdovirus Associated With Acute Mortality in Multiple Outbreaks in Farmed Giant Snakehead (Channa micropeltes) in Thailand. [PDF]
Snakehead rhabdovirus (SHRV) is a viral pathogen previously associated with mortality in snakehead fish (Channa spp.) and other closely related species. In this study, we report the detection of SHRV‐like virus in giant snakehead (C. micropeltes) from multiple fish farms in Thailand, where acute disease outbreaks resulted in cumulative mortalities ...

The First Report of Cod Gill Poxvirus in Gills of Atlantic Cod (Gadus morhua L.) Suffering From Cardiorespiratory Disease. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Atlantic cod farming experiences renewed growth in Norway, and increased awareness is essential to address emerging diseases in this species. There are few reports on gill diseases in cod, and to date, no viral gill infections of cod have been documented. In this study, we collected samples from three sequential time points in summer 2023 from

Distribution and Risk Factors Associated With Tilapia Parvovirus (TiPV) Presence in Red Hybrid Tilapia (<i>Oreochromis</i> spp.) Farms in Thailand. [PDF]
Emerging viral diseases, such as tilapia parvovirus (TiPV), are having a significant economic impact on global tilapia aquaculture. TiPV is responsible for the mass mortality of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) and red hybrid tilapia (Oreochromis spp.) in China, India and Thailand.

Development of a Real-Time PCR Assay for Noninvasive Detection of Miamiensis avidus in Olive Flounder Aquaculture. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Miamiensis avidus (syn. Philasterides dicentrarchi) leads to high mortality and economic losses in olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) aquaculture. In this study, we developed a real‐time PCR assay targeting the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (cox1) gene of M. avidus to sensitively detect and quantify the parasite in seawater.
