Abstract
White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) is a major shrimp pathogen causing large economic losses. In an attempt to identify the envelope proteins involved in virus infection, antisera against six WSSV envelope proteins were used in neutralization assays conducted in vivo. The results showed that the virus infection could be significantly delayed or neutralized by antibodies against three WSSV envelope proteins (VP68, VP281 and VP466). This neutralization was further confirmed by quantitative PCR. It could be concluded that the viral envelope proteins VP68, VP281 and VP466 played roles in WSSV infection to shrimp.Entities:
