“…Genotype VII is a new genotype. These results are consistent with the results of Yan et al [3] and Hossain et al [15], but do not support the conclusions of Kitamura et al [14] and Kvitt et al [16]. From an evolutionary point of view, LCDV1 differentiated first, followed by LCDV-rf, LCDV-tl, LCDV-cb and LCDV-sa, and then by LCDV-rc and LCDV-sb, LCDV-cn, LCDV-C, and LCDV-jf.…”

“…Organisms and DNA sequences Twenty-five LCDV isolates were analyzed [3,10,11,14,15,21,22]. The names of these 25 isolates, their abbreviated names, the geographical locations from which they were collected, their host species, and the GenBank accession numbers of their mcp genes are listed in Table 1.…”

“…The mcp gene is one of the most important molecular markers for analyzing the genetic relationships among iridoviruses because its nucleotide sequence is relatively conserved within the Iridoviridae family [12,13]. Recently, several LCDV genotypes were reported, based on the mcp gene and the pathogenicity of the virus [3,[14][15][16][17]. According to the results of these studies, we speculated that the genetic similarity of LCDVs may be related to their host fish species and studies into the evolution and genetic similarities of LCDVs should take into consideration the evolutionary history of their host fish species.…”

Lymphocystis disease virus (LCDV) is the causative agent of lymphocystis disease. In this study, the mcp gene of LCDV and the cyt b gene of the host fish were selected as molecular markers, and the phylogenetic relationships between LCDV and its host were analyzed. The 25 LCDV isolates examined in this study were attributed to seven LCDV genotypes: genotype I (LCDV-1), genotype II (LCDV-cn, etc.), genotype III (LCDV-rf), genotype IV (LCDV-rc and LCDV-sb), genotype V (LCDV-cb), genotype VI (LCDV-tl), and genotype VII (LCDV-sa). Genotype VII is a new genotype. LCDV1 was found to have differentiated first, followed by LCDV-rf; then LCDV-tl; LCDV-cb; and then LCDV-sa; and by LCDV-rc and LCDV-sb; and finally by LCDV-cn, LCDV-C, and LCDV-jf. From the host evolutionary perspective, Rachycentron canadum was found to have differentiated first, followed by Trichogaster leeri, Chanda baculis, and Sebastes schlegeli, Lateolabrax sp., Sparus aurata, Platichthys flesus, and Paralichthys olivaceus. Comparison of the phylogenies of the host fish species and LCDVs revealed no significant evidence of cospeciation between LCDVs and their host fish. In-depth studies of the genetic variation in LCDVs can enhance our understanding of the mechanism of LCDV infection, which may provide important insights into the prevention and treatment of lymphocystis disease.

In Thailand, the disease was reported by Wachirachaipaisal and Limsuwan in 1985. Over 125 fish species were reported including 25 marine species, belonging to 42 families (Cano et al, 2006;Sheng et al, 2007;Cano et al, 2009).…”
