“…Marine caliciviruses seem to continue to emerge from reservoirs in the ocean and be introduced to terrestrial populations. As well as crossing the land–sea interface these viruses cross species and class barriers (Smith et al., 1986a, 1998). Two serotypes (SMSV‐6 and SMSV‐7) detected in opaleye fish are neutralized by sera of California and Steller sea lions (Barlough et al., 1988).…”

Viruses of lower vertebrates recently became a field of interest to the public due to increasing epizootics and economic losses of poikilothermic animals. These were reported worldwide from both wildlife and collections of aquatic poikilothermic animals. Several RNA and DNA viruses infecting fish, amphibians and reptiles have been studied intensively during the last 20 years. Many of these viruses induce diseases resulting in important economic losses of lower vertebrates, especially in fish aquaculture. In addition, some of the DNA viruses seem to be emerging pathogens involved in the worldwide decline in wildlife. Irido-, herpes- and polyomavirus infections may be involved in the reduction in the numbers of endangered amphibian and reptile species. In this context the knowledge of several important RNA viruses such as orthomyxo-, paramyxo-, rhabdo-, retro-, corona-, calici-, toga-, picorna-, noda-, reo- and birnaviruses, and DNA viruses such as parvo-, irido-, herpes-, adeno-, polyoma- and poxviruses, is described in this review.

“…A non-tumour-associated calicivirus is the only known example of successful expression in different hosts, occurring in both marine fish and marine mammals (Smith et al 1986, Barlough et al 1988. Although this finding may seem surprising at first glance, it is likely to be explained by the phylogenetic position of the host system.…”

Skin tumours of fish are easily recognizable lesions, some of which have been known for centuries. Causes of fish tumour formation are varied and are often proposed to be multifactorial. In more than half of all cases examined by electron rnicroscopy and virological methods, virus or virus-hke particles were found in tumour tissues. So far, oncogenicity has been clearly demonstrated only for herpesviruses isolated from benign tumours. Classification of fish skin tumours, tumour-associated and turnour-inducing viruses, and the possible reasons for seasonal variation in slun tumour prevalence, are revlewed. It is postulated that fundamental principles determne the role of viruses in the induction of skin tumours of fish within a framework of different biological and environmental parameters.

“…Collectively, 8 of the 12 recognized serotypes of SMSV have been recovered at least once from these animals, and seroepizootiologic surveys have demonstrated widespread exposure to these and other marine calicivirus types, including the VESV's (for general reviews see Barlough et al 1986 andSmith et al 1986). A major enzootic focus of this activity exists in the southern California coastal zone, where opaleye and California sea lions are believed to be the primary participants in an enzootic/epizootic cycle of calicivirus transmission (Smith et al 1980a, b).…”

“…The vast majority of caliciviruses isolated to date from marine mammals have been obtained from members of the subfamily Otariinae (for reviews see Barlough et al 1986 andSmith et al 1986). Virologic and serologic studies indicate that California and Steller sea lions figure prominently in calicivirus transmission cycles.…”

Neutral17ing antibodies to San M~g u e l sea llon virus (SMSV) types 6 and/or 7 were found in sera collected from California sea l~o n s Zalophus c californianus in 1977 and 1983 and in sera collected from Steller sea lions Eumetoplas jubatus in 1976 and 1985 The combined prevalence rates of ShlSV anubodies in these 2 species were SMSV-6 19/228 = 8.3 %, and SMSV-7, 4/228 = 1 7 '10 Titers ranged from 1 20 to 1 320 by standard microtlter neutralization assay Seropositive sea lions were dispersed along the eastern Pacific rim from Alaska to the southern California Channel Islands Anhbodies to either agent were not found In sera collected from northern fur seals Callorhlnus urslnus, Pacific walruses Odobenus rosnlarus divergens seals of the family Phocidae, or several cetacean species Both SMSV-6 and SMSV-7 have been isolated from opaleye G~rella nlgrIcans an ocean fish found pnmarily In the southern California coastal zone, the presence of antibody-positive sea llons in more northern waters indicates that these piscine-ongin SMSV types may have a wider distribution in nature than has been previously supposed
