Aquaculture Virology, Second Edition covers all the known virus families, and specific diseases that affect each aquatic organism. Descriptions of each disease includes disease name, structure and composition of virus, classification and virus replication, epidemiology, pathology and immunity, diagnostic methods (gross pathology, histopathology, cell culture, PCR, sequencing, ELISA, etc.) and prevention and control. This is an excellent reference of updated foundational and practical knowledge from experts in both academia and research.Those interested in fish viral diseases will find the book an excellent source for high quality illustrations of viral structure, diagrams of pathogenesis of diseases, and many images of gross pathology and histopathology lesions, using the same format in all chapters to facilitate the reading and studying. This second edition of the book will cover all virus families and the specific diseases relevant to aquaculture with current information delivered in a systematic and succinct way to the researcher, teacher, student, diagnostic laboratory staff, clinical veterinarian, aquaculture disease practitioner, farmer, and all people that are interested in viruses in general. Provides unique information on animal pathogens and viruses for aquaculture and fisheries with update Presents high quality illustrations of viral structure, diagrams of pathogenesis of diseases, gross pathology and histopathology lesions to aid in understanding Incorporates all updated changes in taxonomy since the first edition Includes a new chapter on climate change and a new chapter on herpesviruses Describes all viruses in three major aquatic animals, fish, crustaceans, and mollusks INDICE: General Aspects 1.
