Megalocytiviruses cause high mortality diseases that have seriously impacted aquaculture, with the most frequent outbreaks occurring in East and South‐East Asia. The international trade of juvenile fish for food and ornamental aquaculture has aided the spread of these viruses, which have spread to Europe and Australia and other regions. Australian freshwater fishes were examined for susceptibility to infection with the exotic megalocytivirus, dwarf gourami iridovirus (DGIV), which belongs to a group with the type species, Infectious spleen and kidney necrosis virus (ISKNV). Fish were held at 23 ± 1 °C and challenged by intraperitoneal (IP) injection or by cohabitation with Murray cod, Maccullochella peelii (Mitchell) infected with DGIV. A species was deemed to be susceptible to DGIV based on evidence of viral replication, as determined by qPCR, and megalocytic inclusion bodies observed histologically. Horizontal transmission occurred between infected Murray cod and golden perch, Macquaria ambigua (Richardson), Macquarie perch, Macquaria australasica (Cuvier) and Murray cod. This indicated that DGIV shed from infected fish held at 23 °C can survive in fresh water and subsequently infect these naïve fish. Further, DGIV administered IP was highly pathogenic to golden perch, Macquarie perch and Murray cod. Compared to these species, the susceptibility of southern pygmy perch, Nannoperca australis (Gunther) was lower. Freshwater catfish (dewfish), Tandanus tandanus (Mitchell), were not susceptible under the experimental conditions based on the absence of clinical disease, mortality and virus replication. This study showed the potential risks associated with naïve and DGIV‐infected fish sharing a common water source.  相似文献

MVSF‐12 belonging to megalocytivirus type 3 was isolated from cultured starry flounder; Platichthys stellatus, at the moribund or subclinical stage with low mortalities in Korea. Of 20 apparently healthy fish in the farms, 17 were also confirmed in nested polymerase chain reaction to be infected by megalocytivirus. When starry flounder; rock bream, Oplegnathus fasciatus; and olive flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus, were artificially infected by MVSF‐12 or iridovirus sachun‐1 (IVS‐1, megalocytivirus type 1), starry flounder and olive flounder showed no mortality until Day 24, without any clinical signs including enlarged spleen, while rock bream showed 100% mortality by IVS‐1 infection within 11 d but no mortality by MVSF‐12. Although it was not pathogenic, MVSF‐12 in infected fish at Day 24 was viable when successfully cultured in vitro using primary rock bream embryo cells and produced a cytopathic effect (CPE) with the viral copy numbers between 1.76 × 107 and 5.23 × 107/mL of culture supernatant. In conclusion, this study demonstrates the low pathogenicity of MVSF‐12 and low susceptibility of starry flounder and olive flounder to both MVSF‐12 and IVS‐1. Indeed, MVSF‐12 at the subclinical stage could be replicated with CPE in vitro, indicating a possibility to induce pathogenic effects and mortality under adverse environment or physiologic conditions.  相似文献

丝足鱼(Trichogaster trichopterus)耐盐性及盐度驯化   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1       下载免费PDF全文
以斑马鱼(Danio rerio)和剑尾鱼(Xiphophorus helleri)作比较,对丝足鱼(Trichogaster trichopterus)耐盐性进行研究,测定丝足鱼的96h半致死盐度(LS50-96h)、平均存活时间(MST)、50%存活时间(MT50)、开始死亡时间和死亡率等耐盐指标,并逐级提高养殖水体盐度对丝足鱼进行耐盐驯化实验,测定丝足鱼在盐度为14水体中不同驯化时间的血清渗透压。结果表明,①丝足鱼的耐盐性高于斑马鱼,而低于剑尾鱼的耐盐性;②丝足鱼稚、幼鱼间耐盐性存在着极显著差异,其耐盐性与日龄有关,日龄越大,耐盐性越强;③丝足鱼在盐度14半咸水中驯化48h左右渗透压基本调节平衡。实验证明经过从低盐度到高盐度的梯度驯化,丝足鱼可适应盐度为14的半咸水,为丝足鱼作为海水致病菌毒力分析模型奠定理论基础。  相似文献

Megalocytivirus belongs to the Iridoviridae family and is known to affect finfish. Megalocytivirus epizootics have been reported to occur in several cultured fish species in China; however, no megalocytivirus associated with rock bream, Oplegnathus fasciatus (Temminck & Schlege), has been documented. In this study, we characterized for the first time a megalocytivirus, rock bream iridovirus (RBIV)‐C1, detected in cultured rock bream in a fish farm in China that had been inflicted with a high‐mortality disease outbreak. Sequence analysis of three conserved genes showed that RBIV‐C1 shares over 90% overall identities with a number of known megalocytiviruses. Electron microscopic examination revealed RBIV‐C1 as hexagonal particles similar to those reported for megalocytiviruses. In vivo infection study indicated that, following inoculation into rock bream, RBIV‐C1 induced 100% mortality and upregulated the expression of Mx, IL‐1β and IL‐8. The infected fish exhibited pathological signs similar to those observed in naturally diseased fish. Furthermore, studies in a turbot (Scophthalmus maximus L.) model indicated that RBIV‐C1 induced acute infection in turbot that led to 100% mortality. These results indicate that RBIV‐C1 is highly virulent to rock bream as well as turbot and that RBIV‐C1 is closely related to a number of previously reported megalocytivirus and likely a genetic variant of the latter.  相似文献

Gross protein and fat requirements in formulated feeds designed for the honey gourami, Trichogaster chuna (initial weight 1.34–1.38 g), were investigated. Feeds containing 30%, 40%, and 50% protein and 6% and 9% lipid at each protein level were tested. Protein and energy sources used were from fishmeal, shrimp meal, clam meal, soy flour, and wheat flour. An equal mixture of crude sardine oil and groundnut oil was used as the source of lipids. Comparison of the whole gourami amino acid profiles before and after the dietary treatments indicated a relative decline in all amino acids except methionine and lysine. Fatty acid profiles of whole individuals after dietary treatment showed a substantial increase in monounsaturated fatty acids relative to the initial fatty acid profiles. No significant differences were observed in fish growth between dietary treatments (p > .05). Feeds containing 30% protein and 6% lipid were found to be adequate for normal growth, while feeds with 40% protein and 6% lipid were seen to help accelerate growth and reproduction. In this study, protein and lipid levels required for regular maintenance, sexual maturation, and spawning of aquarium‐reared gourami were established.  相似文献

A continuous cell line designated BMGB (brown‐marbled grouper brain) was established from the brain tissues of the brown‐marbled grouper Epinephelus fuscoguttatus and characterized. BMGB cells were identified as astroglial progenitor cells because they expressed glial fibrillary acidic protein and keratin and were persistently infected by betanodavirus, as confirmed through immunocytochemistry, polymerase chain reaction and immunoblot analyses. Because few intact virions were present in the BMGB cell culture fluid, the cytopathic effect (CPE) was not observed when the culture fluid was inoculated with GBC1 cells. However, BMGB cells displayed typical CPE after infection with additional betanodavirus, megalocytivirus and chum salmon reovirus. BMGB cells showed low myxovirus resistance (Mx) protein expression, which increased following betanodavirus and reovirus infection. Because the cells contained several unusual or degraded viral proteins, the persistent infection of betanodavirus in the BMGB cells may have resulted from a mechanism that destroys the viral proteins rather than the result of Mx protein expression. Despite the persistent betanodavirus infection, BMGB cells proliferated in a manner similar to other normal tropic fish cells and supported the propagation of several piscine viruses; however, the yield was lower than that of normal cells. The BMGB cells will be useful for investigating virus and host cell interaction.  相似文献

Abstract. A lymphocystis infection is described from aquarium-held snakeskin gourami, Trichogaster pectoralis (Regan). The cytoplasm of the hypertrophic cells revealed virus particles of extended hexagonal profiles with thin two-layered capsids. Subsequent examination of the fish 4 months later revealed hypertrophic cells showing varying degrees of collapse and degradation. The virus particles loading such cells were of regular hexagonal profiles with thick three-layered capsids.  相似文献

As a study of cryoprotectant toxicity is an essential prerequisite for the development of a cryopreservation protocol, this study focuses on determining the toxicity of four permeable cryoprotectants: dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), propylene glycol (PG), methanol (MeOH), and acetamide (Ac). In cryoprotectant toxicity experiments, striped gourami (Trichogaster fasciata) embryos at three different developmental stages (multi cell, 100% epiboly, and proliferation of somites) were exposed to cryoprotectant solutions with concentrations from 1 to 4 M for a period of 5 and 15 min. Following these treatments, the embryos were incubated until the evaluation of hatching rate. Embryos were tolerant to low concentrations of all cryoprotectants tested in the range of 1 to 2 M for all developmental stages. Early stage embryos were more vulnerable to high concentration (3 and 4 M) than late stage embryos. Results also showed that as concentration and duration of exposure increased, the hatching rate significantly decrease (P < 0.05). On a molar-equivalent basis, DMSO appeared to be less toxic to PG, MeOH, and Ac in general. Exposure to cryoprotectants revealed a stage-dependent sensitivity. Toxicity increased in the order of MeOH < DMSO < PG < Ac in multi cell stage and DMSO < MeOH < PG < Ac in 100% epiboly and proliferation of somites stages. The proliferation of somites stage embryos was less sensitive to exposure to cryoprotectants than multi cell and 100% epiboly stages. These findings could be important for designing cryopreservation protocols for this demanding ornamental species.

Since 1992, mass mortalities among cultured giant tiger shrimp, Penaeus monodon (Fabricius), and kuruma shrimp, Penaeus japonicus (Bate), have been observed in Taiwan. The condition is known as 'white spot disease' (WSD), based on the characteristic white spots on the cuticle of diseased shrimp. With the scanning electron microscope, two sizes of white spots were observed. Each spot represented a protrusion on the inside surface of the carapace. The composition of white spots was similar to that of the cuticule, most calcium, as determined with an energy dispersive spectrometer. Histological studies of moribund, infected specimens revealed degenerated cells, characterized by hypertrophied nuclei, in various meso- and ectodermal tissues. Infected tissues included cuticular epidermis, connective tissue, lymphoid organ, antennal gland, and haematopoietic, gill and nervous tissue. Nuclei were Feulgen-positive and no occlusion body was found in the necrotic tissue. Transmission electron microscopy revealed the presence of rod-shaped and enveloped virions in the hypertrophied nuclei. The virions measured 298 ± 21 × 107 ± 8 nm in the giant tiger shrimp and 248 ± 12 × 104 ± 8 nm in the kuruma shrimp. In an experimental infection trial, cumulative mortality was 40% within 14 days under stress conditions. No mortality was observed in controls or in non-stressed infected shrimp. Experimental infections show that environmental stressors such as ammonia may enhance the severity of WSD virus infections in cultured shrimp.  相似文献

The present study aimed to determine the effects of different levels of marigold, Calendula officinalis, powder, 0 (control), 0.5% (M0.5), 1.5% (M1.5), and 2.5% (M2.5), on pigmentation and growth performance of the blue gourami after a 70‐day trial. At the end of the experiment, no significant differences (p > 0.05) were found in fish growth performance and body compositions. Color parameters (L*, a*, and b*) were weekly evaluated by examining a point posterior to the fish operculum. The marigold‐fed fish were darker than the control fish at Weeks 9 and 10. Yellowness intensity of the M2.5 was significantly higher than the other treatments at Week 9. Skin and caudal fin total carotenoids, astaxanthin, canthaxanthin, and β‐carotene contents of the treatment M2.5 were significantly different (p < 0.05) compared to the other treatments. Muscle total carotenoids, astaxanthin, and canthaxanthin contents of the marigold‐treated fish were significantly (p < 0.05) higher than the control group. Muscle β‐carotene contents of the treatments M1.5 and M2.5 were significantly (p < 0.05) higher than the control group. This study shows that marigold powder may be considered an efficient natural carotenoid source for pigmentation in blue gourami.  相似文献

Blue gourami, Trichogaster trichopterus (Pallas), were intraperitoneally immunized with major adhesin, a 43 kDa OMP protein isolated from fish Aeromonas hydrophila, in the presence of Freund's complete adjuvant (FCA). Three weeks later, a booster injection of adhesin without FCA was administered. Control group fish were similarly treated with phosphate‐buffered saline (PBS) and FCA. Results showed that anti‐adhesin serum obtained from fish after booster immunization exhibited very strong ability in agglutinating bacterial cells. Although this antiserum had no bactericidal effect, it could significantly inhibit serologically different strains of A. hydrophila from invading EPC (Epithelioma papillosum of carp) cells in vitro. In addition, the proliferative response of head kidney leucocytes of these immune fish was significantly increased as compared to that of the control. The results also showed that the major adhesin could provide significant protective immunity to fish against the challenge by homologous and heterologous strains of A. hydrophila and one virulent strain of Vibrio anguillarum.  相似文献

Pseudotuberculosis is a bacterial septicaemia caused by Photobacterium damselae subsp. piscicida in several marine fish species. Yellowtail Seriola quinqueradiata is the most sensitive fish species to this disease. The internal organs of naturally infected yellowtail exhibit whitish spots, tubercle-like tissue structures, consisting of bacterial accumulations. There have been many trials for experimental infection, however adequate method of infection that reproduces moderate mortality and primary clinical signs has not yet established. Present investigation evaluated an immersion infection method by using logarithmic culture-phase bacteria resulting in higher mortality than that using stationary culture-phase bacteria. Typical white spots on the spleen and kidney were also observed constantly in dead fish. Transmission electron microscopy and fluorescent antibody microscopy showed bacterial clusters not only in the spleen and kidney but also in the blood channels in the secondary gill filaments. These results were confirmed repeatedly by plural experiments. The use of logarithmic-phase bacteria in immersion infection is an appropriate technique to reproduce moderate mortality and primary clinical signs, which will be a reliable infection method also for the challenge test of pseudotuberculosis vaccine.  相似文献

Mass mortality of Korean catfish, Silurus asotus, occurred in a culture farm situated in Jeollabukdo Province, Korea. The cumulative mortality rates reached up to 5% of the total fish in the farm per day. In clinical signs, the affected fish showed abdominal distension, vent protrusion, enteritis, liver congestion and abscess‐like lesions in enlarged spleen and kidney. Histopathologically, in the liver, hepatocytes lost fat and underwent atrophy or necrosis. The spleen showed necrotized splenocytes and a haemorrhagic pulp. In the kidney, glomerular destruction, degeneration of renal tubular epithelial cell and haemorrhage were observed. However, necrotic muscular lesions were not observed. A pure bacterial isolate was obtained from the liver, spleen and kidney lesions of affected fish. Experimental infection of normal catfish with the isolate resulted in the development of clinical signs similar to those seen on the farm. The isolates were identified as Edwardsiella tarda through biochemical tests (99.4%) and analysis of bacterial genes (16S rDNA) sequences (98%). The bacteria possessed two virulent genes: sodB and katB genes. These results suggest that E. tarda can act as a pathogen of farmed catfish. This is the first report showing that E. tarda caused mortality in cultured Korean catfish.  相似文献

In the present study, a new cell line from the vertebra of mosquitofish Gambusia affinis was successfully established and characterized. The cell line is named as bone Gambusia affinis (BGA) and subcultured for more than 55 passages in Leibovitz's/L15 medium supplemented with 15% FBS at 28°C. The cell line has a modal chromosome number of 48. Molecular characterization of the partial sequence of the coi gene confirmed the origin of the BGA cell line from mosquitofish. These cells exhibited epithelial morphology confirmed by the cytokeratin marker. The BGA cells showed mineralization of their extracellular matrix when stained with alizarin red and von Kossa stain. BGA cells were found to be susceptible to RGNNV and SJNNV strains of betanodavirus (NNV) showing cytopathic effect with multiple vacuolations in the cells. The RT-PCR confirmed the betanodavirus infections in BGA cells. The SEM micrograph showed the morphological changes observed in the cell during virus infection. The in vivo challenge experiment also showed the viral replicating efficiency in the Gambusia affinis with increasing viral titre. Thus, our present results show that the BGA cell line is a useful tool for isolating betanodavirus and could be used to investigate bone cell differentiation and extracellular matrix mineralization.  相似文献

The Chinese giant salamander (Andrias davidianus) as food and medicinal product has been an important aquaculture object in China. Study of gene function in the Chinese giant salamander requires accurate normalization though the use of appropriate reference genes. In this study, the expression levels of three candidate reference genes including β‐actin, GAPDH and cytb of different tissues, different developmental stages and different challenges in Chinese giant salamander were evaluated by qPCR. The stabilities of these three reference genes were analysed by geNorm, NormFinder and BestKeeper software. The results showed that the expression of GAPDH was more stable than that of β‐actin and cytb in four tissues and at two developmental stages of Chinese giant salamander. Compared with GAPDH and cytb, β‐actin was the most stable in spleen of Chinese giant salamander treated with LPS or GSIV. Therefore, the result showed that GAPDH was the suitable reference gene in different tissues and at different developmental stages of Chinese giant salamander. The β‐actin could be used as a reference gene in spleen of Chinese giant salamander challenged with LPS and GSIV. This study provides convincing information for the GAPDH and β‐actin as suitable reference gene in Chinese giant salamander of different tissues, different developmental stages and different challenges respectively.  相似文献
