A new virus isolate from infectious hypodermal and hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHHNV)-infected penaeid shrimps.
A new virus was isolated from infectious hypodermal and hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHHNV)-infected penaeid shrimps. The virus was isolated from two species of penaeid shrimps obtained from three different sources employing a previously developed cell-culture assay. Electron-microscopical studies of both purified virus and infected cells showed bullet-shaped particles identifying it as a rhabdovirus.
