Abstract excerpt
Viral hemorrhagic septicemia virus (VHSV) has four genotypes (I-IV) and sub-lineages within genotype I and IV. Using a reverse genetics approach, we explored the importance of the L gene for growth characteristics at different temperatures following interchange of the L gene within genotype IV (IVa and IVb) strains. VHSV strains harboring heterologous L gene were recovered and we show that the L gene determines...
