The practice and development of the culture of commercially important penaeid shrimp results in the occurrence of infectious and non-infectious diseases worldwide. Most of the diseases are caused by the opportunistic microorganisms which are part of the microflora and fauna of the penaeid shrimp. Once the pathogens get a favourable condition, it will cause diseases to the host organisms. Most of the organisms are ubiquitous and are found and reported all over the cultured area in the world. The pathogens are the bacteria, viruses, parasites and protozoans. Viruses are the most important disease-causing agents in penaeid shrimps. The penaeid viruses are widely spread in geographical areas of shrimp culture. The shipment of broodstock and post larvae from one geographical region to another region often results in spreading of viral diseases. The penaeid viruses are the Whispovirus, white spot syndrome virus (WSSV), Penaeus monodon baculovirus (monodon baculovirus), infectious hypodermal and haematopoietic necrosis virus (IHHNV), infectious myonecrosis virus (IMNV), Taura syndrome virus (TSV), yellow head virus (YHV), white tail disease (WTD), covert mortality nodavirus (CMNV), Laem–Singh virus (LSNV) and shrimp haemocyte iridescent virus (SHIV). The review examines and highlights the aquaculture penaeid shrimp viral diseases in detail and concludes the need and importance of severe disease surveillance of the global countries through networking and coordination to safeguard the aquaculture practice for our future generation.

商业上重要的对虾养殖的实践和发展导致世界范围内传染病和非传染病的发生。大多数疾病是由机会微生物引起的，这些机会微生物是对虾虾微生物区系和动物区系的一部分。一旦病原体得到良好的治疗，就会对宿主生物造成疾病。大多数生物无处不在，并且在世界各地的养殖区都有发现和报道。病原体是细菌，病毒，寄生虫和原生动物。病毒是对虾中最重要的致病因子。对虾病毒在虾类养殖的地理区域中广泛传播。亲虾和幼体从一个地理区域向另一区域的运输通常导致病毒性疾病的传播。whispovirus，白斑综合症病毒（WSSV），斑节对虾杆状病毒（monodon杆状病毒），传染性皮下和造血坏死病毒（IHHNV），传染性心肌坏死病毒（IMNV），Taura综合征病毒（TSV），黄头病毒（YHV），白尾部疾病（WTD），隐性死亡诺达病毒（CMNV），莱姆-辛格病毒（LSNV）和虾血细胞虹彩病毒（SHIV）。审查详细审查并重点介绍了水产养殖对虾虾病毒性疾病，并总结了通过网络和协调以保护我们下一代的水产养殖实践对全球国家进行严重疾病监测的必要性和重要性。
