Abstract

Daphnia pulex from a small pond were infected by an iridescence virus. Infected daphnia differed from healthy ones due to the intense characteristic pink reflected iridescent color. Infected individuals collected in the field died in laboratory as a result of the iridoviral infection. Ultrastructural analysis using electron microscopy revealed highly abundant icosahedral virions in the cytoplasm of multiple types of tissue in the infected daphnids. The mean particle sizes were approximately 200 nm (n = 150) edge-to-edge and 185 nm point-to-point. Keywords: daphnia; Daphnia pulex; iridovirus; electron microscopy.

首次在水蚤中检测到无脊椎动物虹膜病毒。

小池塘的水蚤感染了一种虹彩病毒。感染水蚤与健康水蚤的不同之处在于其强烈的粉红色特征反射出彩虹色。野外采集的受感染个体因虹膜病毒感染在实验室死亡。电镜超微结构分析显示，感染水蚤的多种组织细胞质中存在丰富的二十面体病毒粒子。平均粒径约为200 nm (n = 150)的边缘和185 nm的点对点。关键词:水蚤;水蚤pulex;虹彩;电子显微镜。

期刊介绍： Acta virologica is an international journal of predominantly molecular and cellular virology. Acta virologica aims to publish papers reporting original results of fundamental and applied research mainly on human, animal and plant viruses at cellular and molecular level. As a matter of tradition, also rickettsiae are included. Areas of interest are virus structure and morphology, molecular biology of virus-cell interactions, molecular genetics of viruses, pathogenesis of viral diseases, viral immunology, vaccines, antiviral drugs and viral diagnostics.
