Viability of white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) in sediment during sun-drying (drainable pond) and under non-drainable pond conditions indicated by infectivity to shrimp
2013-07-01
Abstract excerpt
White spot syndrome virus (WSSV), is a highly virulent rapidly replicating large, enveloped, double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) virus, causing an estimated losses of over US$6billion since its emergence in 1992.
