Isolation of a Chinook Salmon Bafinivirus (CSBV) in Imported Goldfish Carassius auratus L. in the United Kingdom and Evaluation of Its Virulence in Resident Fish Species
The potential risk of novel and emerging pathogens being introduced to recipient countries via the international ornamental fish trade is reinforced and the importance of regular full health screens at the border inspection posts to reduce this risk is reinforced.

Global mRNA and miRNA Analysis Reveal Key Processes in the Initial Response to Infection with WSSV in the Pacific Whiteleg Shrimp
- Rebecca S Millard, L. Bickley, E. Santos
- BiologyViruses
- 1 June 2021
It is proposed that post-transcriptional silencing of the immune priming gene Dscam by a novel shrimp miRNA (Pva-pmiR-78; upregulated) as a potential mechanism preventing future recognition of WSSV that may be suppressed in surviving shrimp.
