Se realizo una PCR convencional con 5 il de DNA por muestra para la amplificacion de un fragmento de 321 pb de la proteina de la capside del virus de Necrosis Hematopoyetica Epizootica de la familia Iridoviridae (OIE, 2012).
* No se demostro la presencia de material genomico para la secuencia MCP de las especies pertenecientes a la familia Iridoviridae, ni la presencia del virus de la Necrosis Hematopoyetica Epizootica (EHNv).
To the Editor: Ranaviruses (family
Iridoviridae) are emerging pathogens of farmed and wild amphibians and cause high mortality rates in these animals (1).
Mimiviridae is the newest member of the nucleocytoplasmic large DNA virus (NCLDV) group, which also contains Poxviridae,
Iridoviridae, Asfarviridae, and Phycodnaviridae (1).
The family Iridoviridae is composed of Iridovirus, Chloriridovirus, Ranavirus, and Lymphocystivirus.
Comparative genomic analyses of frog virus 3, type species of the genus Ranavirus (family Iridoviridae).
The Iridoviridae encompass five recognized genera: Iridovirus, Chloriridovirus, Ranavirus, Lymphocystivirus, and goldfish virus l-like viruses (71).
