| a mortality event in wrasse species (labridae) associated with the presence of viral haemorrhagic septicaemia virus. | viral haemorrhagic septicaemia (vhs) is an infectious disease of farmed and wild fish and has an extensive host range in both freshwater and marine environments. in december 2012, a wrasse population consisting of ballan, labrus bergylta (ascanius), corkwing, symphodus melops (l.), cuckoo, labrus mixtus l., goldsinny, ctenolabrus rupestris (l.), and rock cook, centrolabrus exoletus (l.), held at a marine hatchery in the shetland isles, scotland, experienced a mortality event. approximately 10 00 ... | 2015 | 24661037 |
| application of a sensitive, specific and controlled real-time pcr assay to surveillance indicates a low prevalence of viral haemorrhagic septicaemia virus (vhsv) in wild herring, clupea harengus l., in scottish waters. | surveillance data on the distribution of viral haemorrhagic septicaemia virus (vhsv) in the north sea (uk), targeting atlantic herring in areas with previous virus detection, were obtained from research cruises conducted during 2005. the sensitive molecular approach of real-time rt-pcr (qrt-pcr) was applied alongside a newly developed endogenous positive control assay specific for herring (elongation factor 1α) to ensure integrity of template. three hundred and five pools from 1937 individual he ... | 2010 | 20735797 |
| a study of the susceptibility of atlantic halibut, hippoglossus hippoglossus (l.), to viral haemorrhagic septicaemia virus isolated from turbot, scophthalmus maximus (l.). | the susceptibility of atlantic halibut, hippoglossus hippoglossus (l.), to viral haemorrhagic septicaemia virus (vhsv) was tested. juvenile halibut of approximately 5 g weight were subjected to challenge by intraperitoneal injection, cohabitation and immersion to a vhsv isolate from an outbreak of the disease in turbot, scophthalmus maximus (l.). the intraperitoneal injection gave the highest mortality rate of 28% after 50 days. the cohabitee group suffered 19% mortality rate and the immersion g ... | 2003 | 12962229 |
