Hiding in plain sight: Genomic characterization of a novel nackednavirus and evidence of diverse adomaviruses in a hyperpigmented lesion of a largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides) Hiding in plain sight: Genomic characterization of a novel nackednavirus and evidence of diverse adomaviruses in a hyperpigmented lesion of a largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides)
Largemouth bass (LMB; Micropterus nigricans) are popular both as a sportfish and an aquaculture species. At present, six described viruses are associated with LMB, of which two are typically considered in cases of LMB mortality events. Advances in discovery and diagnostic capabilities using next-generation sequencing have augmented surveillance efforts and subsequently led to the...

Novel adomaviruses associated with blotchy bass syndrome in black basses (Micropterus spp.) Novel adomaviruses associated with blotchy bass syndrome in black basses (Micropterus spp.)
Black bass (Micropterus spp.) are the most important warmwater game fishes in the United States. They have high socioeconomic and recreational value and support an important aquaculture industry. Since 2008, fisheries managers have been reporting the observation of hyperpigmented melanistic lesions (HPMLs) on smallmouth bass (M. dolomieu) in different ecoregions of the United States...
