Abstract excerpt
Lymphocystis disease virus (LCDV) is the causative agent of lymphocystis disease. The viruses have been divided into three genotypes (genotype I for LCDV-1, II for Japanese flounder isolates, and III for rockfish isolates) on the basis of major capsid protein (MCP) gene sequences. In this study, we developed a multiplex PCR primer set in order to distinguish these genotypes. We also analyzed the MCP gene of a new...
