Attention to viral infections and pathology previously focussed on diseases of economically important fish. In recent years, however, much new information on molecular virology and oncogenicity derives from viruses occurring in amphibians. New insights into the field of zoonosis were gained by studies of lower vertebrates serving as intermediate hosts in multiple human infections. Certain viruses, e.g. the influenza virus or calicivirus, seem capable of bridging species lines and even the land - sea interface. Global developments in aquaculture are indicated in influenza pandemics. These proceedings present research findings on viruses of fish, amphibians and reptiles, including defence mechanisms, zoonoses, evolutionary considerations and diagnostic approaches.

Winfried Ahne, Prof. Dr. rer. nat. Dr. med. vet. habil. für Zoologie und Virologie an der LMU München; entwickelte bereits in den 80er Jahren ein alternatives In-vitro-Verfahren mit Zellkulturen zur Toxizitätsbestimmung von Abwässern, das ohne den Einsatz lebender Fische auskommt und für das er 1987 mit dem Tierschutzpreis der Erna-Graff-Stiftung ausgezeichnet wurde; Mitglied der Tierschutzkommission des Bundesministeriums für Verteidigung 1988-1996; Mitglied des wissenschaftlichen Beirats der Bundesforschungsanstalt für Viruserkrankungen der Tiere 1994-2000; Mitglied der Japanese Society for Promotion of Science; Ehrenprofessur der Chinesischen Akademie der Wissenschaften 1990.
