Abstract: Disease outbreaks are more prominent in aquaculture throughout the world due to favourable condition which subsequently reduce industry's productivity, profitability, and long-term viability in global aquaculture production. One of the most common diseases in Asia, WSSV causes most dangerous to shrimp aquaculture. Vaccinations and other techniques have shown to be an effective pathogen-prevention strategy against the pathogens. For example, immunizations and other preventive measures that are developed to shield shrimp aquaculture against various viral diseases. But developing such preventive methods as quickly as needed would be difficult because diseases and germs infrequently. This review aims to collect information on the host ranges, immunity to the WSSV virus, genome size, morphology of the virus, pathological changes, and prevention and management procedures that have been used to develop a successful aquaculture.
