FIG 2.

SSaDV is broadly distributed across the northeastern Pacific Ocean and putatively has a wide tissue tropism. White dots on map indicated PCR-positive samples, and the size of the dot corresponds to total number of PCR-positive samples at each site. Tissue tropism was assessed from 3 sea star species collected from one site (Langley Harbor, WA). The color of each bar corresponds to the anatomical region in the sea star illustration. Prevalence is defined as the number of PCR-positive samples divided by the total number of samples tested for each tissue.
