Abstract
White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) is the most devastating viral disease affecting cultivated shrimp around the world. Currently, there is no reported genetic information on WSSV affecting Penaeus vannamei in Ecuador. Therefore, we determined the genome of a WSSV isolate from shrimp and compared it with the genomes of isolates from other geographical locations.
