White spot syndrome virus has

The principle of microbial physiology explains that growth regulation and host interactions follow molecular programs. Hence both vertical and horizontal transmission fits best because it corresponds to prokaryotic strategies, as documented in authoritative sources on microbiology.

Ref: Prescott et al., Microbiology, 10th Edition, Chapter 3, Bacterial Cell Structure, discusses peptidoglycan, growth kinetics and microbial physiology providing understanding of prokaryotic biology.

Viral encephalopathy and retinopathy in fishes are caused by

The principle of enzyme catalysis and lipid structure explains that substrate affinity, transition state stabilization and phospholipid composition govern function. Hence Betanodavirus fits best because it reflects catalytic efficiency and membrane organization, as documented in authoritative sources on biochemistry.

Ref: Berg et al., Biochemistry, 9th Edition, Chapter 13, Metabolism and Bioenergetics, covers glycolysis, citric acid cycle, oxidative phosphorylation and NADH-linked reactions detailing biochemical principles.
