AUSTIN Institute of Aquaculture, University of Stirling, Stirling FK9 4LA, Scotland, UK Since the late nineteenth century, the acquisition of pure bacterial cultures has been central to all facets of microbiology. Fish pathology is no exception insofar as the goal of disease diagnostics and research is the acquisition of pure cultures of the pathogen. The basic premise is that pathological material may be inoculated onto a solid (usually gelled with agar) or into a liquid medium with incubation for a pre- determined interval when individual cells of the pathogen will be cloned into dense culture growth, which will then be subjected to further study. However, the range of media used by fish bacteriologists is restricted, and often centres on tryptone soya agar/broth, brain heart infusion agar/broth and/or marine equivalents. Moreover, the incubation regimes may have little relevance to the growth conditions of the fish. However, the desired outcome is the presence of dense virtually pure growth, which is taken as indicative of recovery of the pathogen. Unfortunately at best, a snap shot of the disease is obtained, and it may not be possible to decide if only one organism instigated the infection, and then contributed to the development of overt disease signs. It is unlikely that culturing on a single occasion would identify microbial population succession within a disease cycle. Also, conventional techniques are unlikely to recognise when two or more discrete organisms working synergistically to produce a single pathology. This situation has been observed with ulcerative conditions in cyprinids when Aeromonas salmonicida and A. hydrophila/ A. sobria may be involved together, with the former instigating infection, and the latter leading to the developing of large ulcers. Certainly, it is realized that not all cells will multiply sufficiently to produce visible colonies. Some cells produce micro-colonies that are invisible to the naked eye. Moreover, the proportion of culturable cells that produce visible growth will vary according to the species and the state of the cells – are they actively growing or comparatively inactive? The latter have a poorer rate of recovery in terms of culturability. The next premise is that an individual colony is derived from multiplication of a single cell. Yet, it is realized that cells in close proximity to each other may multiply and come together to produce a single colony. Then, the resultant growth will most certainly be derived from more than one initial cell. This has greater relevance if the two initial cells are from two different species. Although it is generally assumed that streaking and re-streaking on fresh media will purify any culture, there is evidence for microbial consortia interacting to form what appear to be single pure cultures. Thus, seemingly pure cultures of purple-pigmented aquatic bacteria were recognized to contain cells of A. salmonicida. As so-called pure cultures underpin most of microbiology, it is relevant to understand that the culture does not necessarily contain clones of identical bacteria, but that there is a variation in the genetic potential of the component cells, i.e. the cells are not homogeneous. Certainly, many bacteria change rapidly upon culturing in the laboratory. Cells may become bigger and less active in the laboratory, i.e. genetic potential is lost. It is difficult to be sure if the changes reflect a loss of DNA or whether standard culturing methods select faster growing cells that are effectively not representative of the environment from which they were derived. 5 KN-­‐2 AQUATIC VERSUS NON-AQUATIC HERPESVIRUSES: SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES A. VANDERPLASSCHEN Immunology-Vaccinology, Fundamental and Applied Research for Animals & Health (FARAH), Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, University of Liège, Liège, Belgium The order Herpesvirales encompasses viruses that share structural, genetic and biological properties. However, members of this order infect hosts ranging from molluscs to humans. It is currently divided into three phylogenetically related families. The Herpesviridae family encompasses viruses infecting mammals, birds or reptiles. It is by far the most important, in terms both of the number of its members and the volume of studies that have been devoted to them. The Alloherpesviridae family encompasses viruses infecting fish and amphibians. And finally, the Malacoherpesviridae family comprises viruses infecting molluscs. Over the last decade, an increasing number of studies have been devoted to alloherpesviruses and malacoherpesviruses. Scientific interest in these viruses tends to originate from their impact on wildlife, the economic losses they cause to the aquaculture industry, or their importance as fundamental research object. In this talk, we will review the similarities and the differences existing between herpesviruses infecting aquatic and non-aquatic animals. 6 KN-­‐3 WHAT’S NEW IN BIVALVE MOLLUSC PATHOLOGY?

Telephone: +8 1-82-424-7978. Fax: +81- 82-424-79 1 6. E-mail: [email protected] Running title: Betanodavirus infection in medaka Key words: medaka, betanodavirus, model fish, model virus, freshwater fish Total number of words; text (3532 words), summary (230 words) Total number of figures; 6 figures Total number of tables; 0 table SUMMARY Betanodaviruses, the causal agents of viral nervous necrosis in marine fish, have bipartite positive-sense RNA genomes. Because the genomes are the smallest and simplest among viruses, betanodaviruses are well studied using a genetic engineering system as model viruses, like the cases with the insect viruses, alphanodaviruses, the other members of the family Nodaviridae. However, studies of virus-host interactions have been limited because betanodaviruses basically infect marine fish at early developmental stages (larval and juvenile). These fish are only available for a few months of the year and are not suitable for the construction of a reversed genetics system. To overcome these problems, several freshwater fish species were tested for their susceptibility to betanodaviruses. We have demonstrated that adult medaka (Oryzias latipes), a well-known model fish, is susceptible to both Stripedjack nervous necrosis virus (the type species of the betanodaviruses) and Redspotted grouper nervous necrosis virus which have different host specificity in marine fish species. Infected medaka exhibited erratic swimming and the viruses were specifically localized to the brain, spinal cord, and retina of the infected fish, similar to the pattern of infection in naturally infected marine fish.

  • New Zealand's Genetic Diversity
    1.13 NEW ZEALAND’S GENETIC DIVERSITY NEW ZEALAND’S GENETIC DIVERSITY Dennis P. Gordon National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research, Private Bag 14901, Kilbirnie, Wellington 6022, New Zealand ABSTRACT: The known genetic diversity represented by the New Zealand biota is reviewed and summarised, largely based on a recently published New Zealand inventory of biodiversity. All kingdoms and eukaryote phyla are covered, updated to refl ect the latest phylogenetic view of Eukaryota. The total known biota comprises a nominal 57 406 species (c. 48 640 described). Subtraction of the 4889 naturalised-alien species gives a biota of 52 517 native species. A minimum (the status of a number of the unnamed species is uncertain) of 27 380 (52%) of these species are endemic (cf. 26% for Fungi, 38% for all marine species, 46% for marine Animalia, 68% for all Animalia, 78% for vascular plants and 91% for terrestrial Animalia). In passing, examples are given both of the roles of the major taxa in providing ecosystem services and of the use of genetic resources in the New Zealand economy. Key words: Animalia, Chromista, freshwater, Fungi, genetic diversity, marine, New Zealand, Prokaryota, Protozoa, terrestrial. INTRODUCTION Article 10b of the CBD calls for signatories to ‘Adopt The original brief for this chapter was to review New Zealand’s measures relating to the use of biological resources [i.e. genetic genetic resources.

  • Proteome Analysis Reveals a Role of Rainbow Trout Lymphoid Organs During Yersinia Ruckeri Infection Process
    www.nature.com/scientificreports Correction: Author Correction OPEN Proteome analysis reveals a role of rainbow trout lymphoid organs during Yersinia ruckeri infection Received: 14 February 2018 Accepted: 30 August 2018 process Published online: 18 September 2018 Gokhlesh Kumar 1, Karin Hummel2, Katharina Noebauer2, Timothy J. Welch3, Ebrahim Razzazi-Fazeli2 & Mansour El-Matbouli1 Yersinia ruckeri is the causative agent of enteric redmouth disease in salmonids. Head kidney and spleen are major lymphoid organs of the teleost fsh where antigen presentation and immune defense against microbes take place. We investigated proteome alteration in head kidney and spleen of the rainbow trout following Y. ruckeri strains infection. Organs were analyzed after 3, 9 and 28 days post exposure with a shotgun proteomic approach. GO annotation and protein-protein interaction were predicted using bioinformatic tools. Thirty four proteins from head kidney and 85 proteins from spleen were found to be diferentially expressed in rainbow trout during the Y. ruckeri infection process. These included lysosomal, antioxidant, metalloproteinase, cytoskeleton, tetraspanin, cathepsin B and c-type lectin receptor proteins. The fndings of this study regarding the immune response at the protein level ofer new insight into the systemic response to Y. ruckeri infection in rainbow trout. This proteomic data facilitate a better understanding of host-pathogen interactions and response of fsh against Y. ruckeri biotype 1 and 2 strains. Protein-protein interaction analysis predicts carbon metabolism, ribosome and phagosome pathways in spleen of infected fsh, which might be useful in understanding biological processes and further studies in the direction of pathways. Enteric redmouth disease (ERM) causes signifcant economic losses in salmonids worldwide.

The mortalities occurred during several years and were connected with a few neurological disorders and peritonitis. Viro- logical investigation detected an infection with an unknown rhabdovirus. Based on the entire gly- coprotein (G) and partial RNA polymerase (L) gene sequences, the virus was classified as a perch rhabdovirus (PRV). Pairwise comparisons of the G and L gene regions of grayling isolates revealed that all isolates were very closely related, with 99 to 100% nucleotide identity, which suggests the same origin of infection. Phylogenetic analysis demonstrated that they were closely related to the strain isolated from perch Perca fluviatilis and sea trout Salmo trutta trutta caught from the Baltic Sea. The entire G gene sequences revealed that all Finnish grayling isolates, and both the perch and sea trout isolates, were most closely related to a PRV isolated in France in 2004. According to the partial L gene sequences, all of the Finnish grayling isolates were most closely related to the Danish isolate DK5533 from pike.

  • Parasites of Coral Reef Fish: How Much Do We Know? with a Bibliography of Fish Parasites in New Caledonia
    Belg. J. Zool., 140 (Suppl.): 155-190 July 2010 Parasites of coral reef fish: how much do we know? With a bibliography of fish parasites in New Caledonia Jean-Lou Justine (1) UMR 7138 Systématique, Adaptation, Évolution, Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle, 57, rue Cuvier, F-75321 Paris Cedex 05, France (2) Aquarium des lagons, B.P. 8185, 98807 Nouméa, Nouvelle-Calédonie Corresponding author: Jean-Lou Justine; e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT. A compilation of 107 references dealing with fish parasites in New Caledonia permitted the production of a parasite-host list and a host-parasite list. The lists include Turbellaria, Monopisthocotylea, Polyopisthocotylea, Digenea, Cestoda, Nematoda, Copepoda, Isopoda, Acanthocephala and Hirudinea, with 580 host-parasite combinations, corresponding with more than 370 species of parasites. Protozoa are not included. Platyhelminthes are the major group, with 239 species, including 98 monopisthocotylean monogeneans and 105 digeneans. Copepods include 61 records, and nematodes include 41 records. The list of fish recorded with parasites includes 195 species, in which most (ca. 170 species) are coral reef associated, the rest being a few deep-sea, pelagic or freshwater fishes. The serranids, lethrinids and lutjanids are the most commonly represented fish families. Although a list of published records does not provide a reliable estimate of biodiversity because of the important bias in publications being mainly in the domain of interest of the authors, it provides a basis to compare parasite biodiversity with other localities, and especially with other coral reefs. The present list is probably the most complete published account of parasite biodiversity of coral reef fishes.
