Genomic Sequencing of Ranaviruses Isolated from Turbot (Scophthalmus maximus) and Atlantic Cod ( Gadus morhua )

ABSTRACT Ranaviruses have been isolated from Atlantic cod ( Gadus morhua ) and turbot ( Scophthalmus maximus ) in Denmark. Phylogenomic analyses revealed that these two ranaviruses are nearly identical and form a distinct clade at the base of the ranavirus tree branching off near other fish ranaviru...
