Molt stage and cuticle damage influence White Spot Syndrome Virus immersion infection in penaeid shrimp
Abstract
Transmission of white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) in shrimp has been reported to occur by feeding and immersion. In the present study, the impact of the molt process and artificial lesions in the cuticle on shrimp susceptibility to WSSV was examined using intramuscular and immersion routes.
