Lymphocystivirus cause mass mortality events like megalocytiviruses and ranaviruses, fish with lymphocystis exhibit grossly visible papilloma-like skin lesions which substantially reduce their commercial value. No vaccines are currently available for lymphocystis viruses. Group: dsDNA The genus "Lymphocystivirus" has only one species: "Lymphocystis disease virus 1" (LCDV-1), but Lymphocystis disease virus 2 (LCD-2) is another virus that has been proposed as a second member. LCDV-1 infects European flounder "Platichthys flesus" and European plaice ("Pleuronectes platessa"). LCDV-2 infects the common dab ("Limanda limanda"). A third species Lymphocystis disease virus C has also been proposed based on the relative lack of sequence similarity of
Orange–Fish River Tunnel the tunnel for routine maintenance. Orange–Fish River Tunnel The Orange–Fish Tunnel is an irrigation tunnel in central South Africa. For many years, large areas in the Eastern Cape experienced severe water shortages because of little rainfall in the arid Karoo. The situation was aggravated by the reduction in capacity of many of the existing dams due to heavy silt deposits. The Orange-Fish Tunnel, together with its network of canals, weirs and balancing dams, has enabled these areas to be restored and has made the irrigation of thousands of hectares of additional land possible. The main purpose of the tunnel is
