Journal ArticleDOI
White spot syndrome baculovirus (WSBV) detected in cultured and captured shrimp, crabs and other arthropods
Chu Fang Lo,Chih-Hsiang Ho,Shao-En Peng,Chau Huei Chen,Hui-Chen Hsu,Chiu Yl,Cheng-Fang Chang,Kuan Fu Liu,Mao-Sen Su,Chung Hsiung Wang,Guang Hsiung Kou +10 more
TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper evaluated the effect of 2-step amplification with nested primers on the sensitivity of WSBV diagnostic PCR and found that the sensitivity was 10" to 10" times higher than that of l-step PCR.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pathogenicity of a baculovirus infection causing white spot syndrome in cultured penaeid shrimp in Taiwan
TL;DR: The close resemblance in external signs and viral morphology between spontaneously diseased and experimentally infected shrimp indicated that the rod-shaped virus may be the main causative agent of the disease characterized by white spot syndrome in Taiwan.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection of baculovirus associated with white spot syndrome (WSBV) in penaeid shrimps using polymerase chain reaction
Chu Fang Lo,Jiann-Horng Leu,Chih-Hsiang Ho,Chau Huei Chen,Shao En Peng,You-Tzung Chen,Chih Ming Chou,Pei Yan Yeh,Chang Jen Huang,Hsin Yiu Chou,Chung Hsiung Wang,Guang Hsiung Kou +11 more
TL;DR: It was demonstrated that the causative agents of white spot syndrome in different shnMP specles are closely related and an effective diagnostlc tool is provided for screening shnmp for VSBV infections.
Journal ArticleDOI
The opportunistic marine pathogen Vibrio parahaemolyticus becomes virulent by acquiring a plasmid that expresses a deadly toxin
Chung-Te Lee,I. Tung Chen,I. Tung Chen,Yi Ting Yang,Yi Ting Yang,Tzu-Ping Ko,Yun Tzu Huang,Jiun Yan Huang,Ming Fen Huang,Shin Jen Lin,Chien-Yu Chen,Shih Shuen Lin,Donald V. Lightner,Han Ching Wang,Andrew H.-J. Wang,Hao Ching Wang,Lien-I Hor,Chu Fang Lo,Chu Fang Lo +18 more
TL;DR: It is shown that an AHPND-causing strain of V. parahaemolyticus contains a 70-kbp plasmid with a postsegregational killing system, and that the ability to cause disease is abolished by the natural absence or experimental deletion of the plasmids-encoded homologs of the Photorhabdus insect-related toxins PirA and PirB.
Journal ArticleDOI
Purification and genomic analysis of baculovirus associated with white spot syndrome (WSBV) of Penaeus monodon
Chung Hsiung Wang,Chu Fang Lo,Jiann-Horng Leu,Chih Ming Chou,Pei Yan Yeh,Hsin Yiu Chou,Min-Chen Tung,Chen-Fang Chang,Mao-Sen Su,Guang Hsiung Kou +9 more
TL;DR: It is confirmed that white spot syndrome associated virus (MJSSV) is a member of genus NOB (Non-Occluded Baculovirus) of the subfamily Nudibaculovirinae of Baculviridae and proposed the use of WSBV (BacULovirus associated with White Spot syndrome) to indicate PmNOBIII related agents.
