Featured Research Project

Monitoring for Outbreaks of a Fatal Blue Crab Virus in Rivers with Soft Shell Production Systems

Blue crabs are important to Maryland’s culture and economy. This study will monitor rivers around the Bay for outbreaks of a viral pathogen that targets blue crabs, called the reo-like virus, or RLV, which kills 25 percent of the crabs it infects. Preliminary evidence indicates that crab shedding operations may aid in the spread of this pathogen, and researchers are exploring whether incidences of disease are high in rivers near shedding facilities.
