Tracking the emergence of a novel genotype of Decapod hepanhamaparvovirus in shrimp using laser microdissection and next generation sequencing

Employing Laser Microdissection (LMD), we dissected cells containing intranuclear inclusion bodies pathognomonic for DHPV infection from histological sections. Whole Genome Amplification and NGS were used to generate five complete genomes of the novel DHPV isolate
