Abstract

The article presents a study which focuses on the detection of yellow-head virus (YHV) in wild blue shrimps (Penaeus tylirostris) from the Gulf of California. The study conducted four bioassays with the use of certified pathogen-free Pacific white shrimp (Penaeus vannamei) in order to confirm the presence of YHV and its potential transmission to P. vannamei. An analysis of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was also conducted to analyze both wild shrimp species for white spot syndrome virus (WSSV).

Abstract

The article presents a study to analyze the impact of yellow head virus (YHV) on whiteleg shrimp or Penaeus vannamei in Mexican shrimp farms. The infected shrimp were soaked in 2 percent saline solution in a 1:10 ratio and centrifuged at 12000g for 5 min. It was again diluted in 2 percent saline solution in a 1:10 ratio and used to challenge shrimp at different salinities.
