Moribund Penaeus monodon postlarvae (PL8-PL10) in a hatchery in India were found to be simultaneously infected by 3 different viruses. They were highly infected with monodon baculovirus (MBV) and hepatopancreatic parvovirus (HPV) by histology and with white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) by non-nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR), Apparently healthy postlarvae tested from the same hatchery were positive for MBV and WSSV by nested PCR only, Tissue sections of such postlarvae did not show any histopathological changes, The simultaneous occurrence of these 3 viruses in hatchery-reared postlarval P. monodon is being reported for the first time.
