Abstract
Infectious precocity virus (IPV) poses a significant economic threat to the aquaculture industry by causing sexual precocity and slow growth in Macrobrachium rosenbergii. In this study, we conducted an in-depth investigation into the genetic evolution of IPV from 2011 to 2024 by collecting 31 IPV variants through epidemiological surveys and public databases, including 29 variants with complete genomic sequences. The phylogenetic analysis revealed that these complete genomic sequences clustered into two distinct phylogenetic clades as follows: the Southeast Asian clade and the Chinese clade. Nucleotide and protein variation analyses demonstrated a high degree of similarity, with nucleotide identity ranging from 98.5% to 100% and protein identity from 99.4% to 100%. Further analysis of protein variations within the putative coding region identified two distinct variation patterns. The average dN/dS ratio of 0.12 highlights the strong purifying selection acting on IPV, particularly on structural proteins. In conclusion, this study significantly expands the genomic database of IPV and provides valuable insights into its genetic evolution. These findings offer critical scientific evidence to enhance detection protocols and support sustainable M. rosenbergii aquaculture practices.
期刊介绍:
Viruses (ISSN 1999-4915) is an open access journal which provides an advanced forum for studies of viruses. It publishes reviews, regular research papers, communications, conference reports and short notes. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. There is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. We also encourage the publication of timely reviews and commentaries on topics of interest to the virology community and feature highlights from the virology literature in the ''News and Views'' section. Electronic files or software regarding the full details of the calculation and experimental procedure, if unable to be published in a normal way, can be deposited as supplementary material.
