Abstract

White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) is a pathogen causing significant economic losses to shrimp aquaculture worldwide. Previously, five genome sequences of the virus from farmed shrimp ( Penaeus vannamei and Penaeus monodon ) in India were reported, all originating from farms located on the east coast of the country. Here, we report three new and distinct WSSV genome sequences, two from shrimp ( P. vannamei ) farmed on the west coast of India and the third from the east coast.
