detection of viral hemorrhagic septicemia in round gobies in new york state (usa) waters of lake ontario and the st. lawrence river.	in may 2006 a large mortality of several thousand round gobies neogobius melanostomus (pallas, 1814) occurred in new york waters of the st. lawrence river and lake ontario. necropsies of sampled fish from these areas showed pallor of the liver and gills, and hemorrhagic areas in many organs. histopathologic examination of affected tissues revealed areas of necrosis and hemorrhage. inoculations of fathead minnow pimephales promelas (rafinesque, 1820) cell cultures with dilutions of tissue samples ...	2007	17803104
Emergence of Viral hemorrhagic septicemia virus in the North American Great Lakes region is associated with low viral genetic diversity.	Viral hemorrhagic septicemia virus (VHSV) is a fish rhabdovirus that causes disease in a broad range of marine and freshwater hosts. The known geographic range includes the Northern Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, and recently it has invaded the Great Lakes region of North America. The goal of this work was to characterize genetic diversity of Great Lakes VHSV isolates at the early stage of this viral emergence by comparing a partial glycoprotein (G) gene sequence (669 nt) of 108 isolates collected ...	2011	21991663
