R. of China 5West Pomeranian Technical University, Aquaculture, K. Królewicza 4, 71-550, Szczecin, Poland Abstract Most diseases induced by herpesviruses are host-specific; however, exceptions exist within the family Alloherpesviridae. Most members of the Alloherpesviridae are detected in at least two different species, with and without clinical signs of a disease. In the current study the Koi herpesvirus (KHV) was used as a model member of the Alloherpesviridae and rainbow trout as a model salmonid host, which were infected with KHV by immersion. KHV was detected using direct methods (qPCR and semi-nested PCR) and indirect (enzyme-linked immunosorbant assay; ELISA, serum neutralization test; SNT). The non-koi herpesvirus disease (KHVD)-susceptible salmonid fish were demonstrated to transfer KHV to naïve carp at two different temperatures including a temperature most suitable for the salmonid (15°C) and cyprinid (20°C). -

Molecular Identification and Genetic Characterization of Cetacean Herpesviruses and Porpoise Morbillivirus
MOLECULAR IDENTIFICATION AND GENETIC CHARACTERIZATION OF CETACEAN HERPESVIRUSES AND PORPOISE MORBILLIVIRUS By KARA ANN SMOLAREK BENSON A THESIS PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2005 Copyright 2005 by Kara Ann Smolarek Benson I dedicate this to my best friend and husband, Brock, who has always believed in me. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First and foremost I thank my mentor, Dr. Carlos Romero, who once told me that love is fleeting but herpes is forever. He welcomed me into his lab with very little experience and I have learned so much from him over the past few years. Without his excellent guidance, this project would not have been possible. I thank my parents, Dave and Judy Smolarek, for their continual love and support. They taught me the importance of hard work and a great education, and always believed that I would be successful in life. I would like to thank Dr. Tom Barrett for the wonderful opportunity to study porpoise morbillivirus in his laboratory at the Institute for Animal Health in England, and Dr. Romero for making the trip possible. I especially thank Dr. Ashley Banyard for helping me accomplish all the objectives of the project, and all the wonderful people at the IAH for making a Yankee feel right at home in the UK. I thank Alexa Bracht and Rebecca Woodruff who have been with me in Dr. Romero’s lab since the beginning. Their continuous friendship and encouragement have kept me sane even in the most hectic of times. -

Johnson, DVM, Diplomate ACVP Copy Editor: Sean Hahn Layout and Copy Editor: Fran Card WSC Online Management and Design Scott Shaffer ARMED FORCES INSTITUTE OF PATHOLOGY Washington, D.C. 20306-6000 2009 ML2009 i PREFACE The Armed Forces Institute of Pathology, Department of Veterinary Pathology has conducted a weekly slide conference during the resident training year since 12 November 1953. This ever- changing educational endeavor has evolved into the annual Wednesday Slide Conference program in which cases are presented on 25 Wednesdays throughout the academic year and distributed to 135 contributing military and civilian institutions from around the world. Many of these institutions provide structured veterinary pathology resident training programs. During the course of the training year, histopathology slides, digital images, and histories from selected cases are distributed to the participating institutions and to the Department of Veterinary Pathology at the AFIP. Following the conferences, the case diagnoses, comments, and reference listings are posted online to all participants. This study set has been assembled in an effort to make Wednesday Slide Conference materials available to a wider circle of interested pathologists and scientists, and to further the education of veterinary pathologists and residents-in-training. The number of histopathology slides that can be reproduced from smaller lesions requires us to limit the number of participating institutions. -

viruses Article Discovery and Characterization of Actively Replicating DNA and Retro-Transcribing Viruses in Lower Vertebrate Hosts Based on RNA Sequencing Xin-Xin Chen, Wei-Chen Wu and Mang Shi * School of Medicine, Sun Yat-sen University, Shenzhen 518107, China; [email protected] (X.-X.C.); [email protected] (W.-C.W.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: In a previous study, a metatranscriptomics survey of RNA viruses in several important lower vertebrate host groups revealed huge viral diversity, transforming the understanding of the evolution of vertebrate-associated RNA virus groups. However, the diversity of the DNA and retro-transcribing viruses in these host groups was left uncharacterized. Given that RNA sequencing is capable of revealing viruses undergoing active transcription and replication, we collected previously generated datasets associated with lower vertebrate hosts, and searched them for DNA and retro-transcribing viruses. Our results revealed the complete genome, or “core gene sets”, of 18 vertebrate-associated DNA and retro-transcribing viruses in cartilaginous fishes, ray- finned fishes, and amphibians, many of which had high abundance levels, and some of which showed systemic infections in multiple organs, suggesting active transcription or acute infection within the host. Furthermore, these new findings recharacterized the evolutionary history in the families Hepadnaviridae, Papillomaviridae, and Alloherpesviridae, confirming long-term virus–host codivergence relationships for these virus groups. -

www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Bufonid herpesvirus 1 (BfHV1) associated dermatitis and mortality in free ranging common toads Received: 19 January 2018 Accepted: 17 September 2018 (Bufo bufo) in Switzerland Published: xx xx xxxx Francesco C. Origgi1, Benedikt R. Schmidt 2,3, Petra Lohmann4, Patricia Otten5, Roman K. Meier1, Simone R. R. Pisano1, Gaia Moore-Jones1, Marco Tecilla6, Ursula Sattler1, Thomas Wahli1, Veronique Gaschen7 & Michael H. Stofel7 Here we report the discovery and partial characterization of a novel herpesvirus tentatively named Bufonid herpesvirus 1 (BfHV1) from severe dermatitis in free ranging common toads (Bufo bufo) in Switzerland. The disease has been observed in toads every year since 2014, in spring, during the mating season, at diferent and distant locations. The virus is found in the skin and occasionally in the brain of infected toads. The genome of the virus is at least 158 Kb long and contains at least 152 open reading frames with a minimal length of 270 nt. The genome of BfHV1 contains all the signature genes that are present in alloherpesviruses. Phylogenetic analysis based on the amino acid sequence of the DNA polymerase and terminase proteins positions the novel virus among the members of the genus Batrachovirus, family Alloherpesviridae. This is the frst herpesvirus ever characterized in common toads. Amphibians are undergoing a major decline worldwide1,2. Te reasons for this unprecedented loss in biodiversity are only partially understood3. Among potential contributors, infectious diseases have recently raised attention as important players4,5. In addition to well-characterized amphibian pathogens including chytrids6–9 and rana- viruses5,10,11, it is likely that other pathogens or putative pathogens, whose role in amphibian disease ecology is basically unknown, though not irrelevant, are still to be discovered and better investigated12. -
