Confirmation of spring viremia of carp virus in wild common carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) in Mexico

Abstract

This study confirms the presence of spring viremia of carp virus (SVCV) in wild common carp (Cyprinus carpio L) in central Mexico. Fish exhibited lesions suggestive of SVC, and samples were analyzed by cell culture, molecular techniques, gene sequencing, and electronic microscopy, resulting in the isolation and identification of SVCV.
