title: Genomic Sequence of a Ranavirus Isolated from Short-Finned Eel (Anguilla australis).
abstract: The short-finned eel ranavirus (SERV) was isolated from short-finned eel imported to Italy from New Zealand. Phylogenomic analyses revealed that SERV is a unique member of the genus Ranavirus, family Iridoviridae, branching at the base of the tree near other fish ranaviruses.
