First Discovery of Beta-Sitosterol as a Novel Antiviral Agent against White Spot Syndrome Virus. [PDF]
The outbreak of white spot syndrome (WSS) is a looming challenge, due to dramatic losses to the crustacean aquaculture industry. However, at present, there are no prophylactic or therapeutic means to control this infectious viral disease.

Shrimp (Penaeus vannamei) survive white spot syndrome virus infection by behavioral fever [PDF]
Both endotherms and ectotherms may raise their body temperature to limit pathogen infection. Endotherms do this by increasing their basal metabolism; this is called ‘fever’.

Molecular Mechanisms of White Spot Syndrome Virus Infection and Perspectives on Treatments [PDF]
Since its emergence in the 1990s, White Spot Disease (WSD) has had major economic and societal impact in the crustacean aquaculture sector. Over the years shrimp farming alone has experienced billion dollar losses through WSD.

The White Spot Syndrome Virus DNA Genome Sequence [PDF]
White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) is at present a major scourge to worldwide shrimp cultivation. We have determined the entire sequence of the double-stranded, circular DNA genome of WSSV, which contains 292,967 nucleotides encompassing 184 major open reading frames (ORFs).

WSSV exploits AMPK to activate mTORC2 signaling for proliferation by enhancing aerobic glycolysis
AMPK and its downstream signaling pathways are implicated in the white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) response of the shrimp Marsupenaeus japonicus, with WSSV using this pathway to promote its proliferation.

Evolutionary genomics of white spot syndrome virus
AbstractWhite spot syndrome virus (WSSV) has been one of the most devastating pathogens affecting the global shrimp industry since its initial outbreaks in Asia in the early 1990s. In this study, we recovered 13 complete metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) of Japanese WSSV isolates and 30 draft WSSV MAGs recovered from publicly available sequencing ...
