Figure S1 Histologic appearance of a typical infected Banggai cardinalfish from the BCIV-2010 case. (a) and (b) Spleen: Basophilic inclusion bodies in megalocytic cells whose morphology is often obscured. Foci of necrosis within intervening pulp areas. (c) and (d) Kidney: Basophilic inclusion bodies in megalocytic cells within foci of interstitial haematopoietic necrosis. (e) and (f) Intestine: Basophilic inclusion bodies in megalocytic perivascular cells but minimal mucosal reaction. Pigmentation within normal limits. Original magnifications: (a, c) 100×, (d, e) 200×, (b, f) 400×; H&E stain. Figure S2 Conventional PCR results of the Banggai cardinalfish case from 2000 (BCIV-2000) using the MCV-F/R primers (Koda et al., 2018) and a 100 bp ladder. (a) a single positive band for BCIV-2000 at the 173 bp position. Samples (b) and (c) are negative and correspond to the extraction control and negative template control, respectively. (d) a single bright band at the 173 bp position, representing the positive control for the MCV assay. Table S1 Genome annotation of the Banggai cardinalfish iridovirus from 2012 (BCIV-2012).
