Sea star-associated densovirus

Sea star-associated densovirus (SSaDV) belongs to the Parvoviridae family. Like the other members of its family, it is a single-stranded DNA virus. It causes Sea star wasting disease.[1]


Epidemiology

SSaDV affects sea stars from southern [[Alaska] to Baja California. It tends to occur in large outbreaks with high mortality, as it has in 1972, 1978, 2013, and 2014. See Sea star wasting disease.[1]

Structure

The physical characteristics of SSaDV are similar to the other members of the genus Ambidensovirus.[1]
