“…Hoffman et al (1969) reported that the bluegill virus was 70-80 nm in diameter, was rather uniform in electron density, and resembled a myxovirus. Beckwith (1974Beckwith ( , 1975, however, reported that the virus was pleomorphic, varying from 80 to 250 nm in diameter, and contained electron-dense granules -20 nm in diameter. Beckwith suggested that the bluegill virus resembled an arenavirus or an atypical paramyxovirus.…”
