Largemouth Bass Virus (LMBV)• Genetic variants explain differentialmortality in bass species?• Sequence data only available for limitedLMBV genes• Based on major capsid protein (MCP)sequencing this is unlikely• Partial MCP gene of 16 isolates sequenced• 100% identical across 500 bp• MCP is typically the most variable in thisfamily of virusPhoto: L. Iwanowicz – USGS NFHRL
Largemouth Bass Virus (LMBV)• Whole genome sequencing (genome ~120 kb)• Next Generation Sequencing (NGS)methods• Difference in genes associated withvirulence could explain difference?• Data pending (issues with host cellcontamination)
