Abstract
Largemouth bass ranavirus (LMBV) is an epidemic disease that seriously jeopardizes the culture of largemouth bass(Micropterus salmoides), and it has a very high incidence in largemouth bass. Once an outbreak occurs, it may directly lead to the failure of the culture, resulting in substantial economic losses, but there is no effective vaccine or special effective drug yet. Consequently, it is important to establish an accurate, sensitive, convenient and specific detection approach for preventing LMBV infection. The recombinant enzyme-assisted amplification (RAA) technology was used in combination with clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR), and associated protein 13a (CRISPR/Cas13a) to detect LMBV. We designed RAA primers and CRISPR RNA (crRNA) that targeted the conserved region in the LMBV main capsid protein (MCP) gene, amplified sample nucleic acids using the RAA technology, performed CRISPR/Cas13a fluorescence detection and evaluated the sensitivity and specificity of the established method with qPCR as a control method. This technique was able to determine the results by collecting fluorescence signals, visualizing fluorescence by UV excitation and combining with lateral flow strips (LFS). The sensitivity and specificity of the established method were consistent with the qPCR method. Besides, it was performed at a constant temperature of 37 °C and the sensitivity of the reaction system was 3.1 × 101 copies/μL, with no cross-reactivity with other common aquatic pathogens. Further, the positive detection rate of the proposed method in 32 clinical samples was consistent with that of qPCR. In conclusion, our established RAA-CRISPR/Cas13 method for detecting LMBV is sensitive, simple and specific, which is applicable in the rapid on-site detection and epidemiological monitoring of LMBV.

Abstract
The enteric morphology, enteric microbiota structure and serum metabolomics of M. salmoides before and after infected by A. hydrophila were analysed to explore the pathogenic mechanism of A. hydrophila infection in M. salmoides. The results revealed that, after the infection of A. hydrophila, the villus boundary of largemouth bass became less obvious; the relative abundance of Proteobacteria and decreasing relative abundance of Tenericutes were increasing; genera relative abundance of putatively beneficial bacteria (Mycoplasma) were decreasing, whereas the genus Aeromonas increased after infection; serum metabolomic analysis showed that infection with A. hydrophila caused disorder to the metabolic processes of largemouth bass, particularly amino acid metabolism, and caused inflammation; several potential pathogen infection-related and significantly differential intestinal microbiota-related metabolite markers were identified, such as 6-hydroxy-5-methoxyindole glucuronide, zalcitabine, bilirubin, aciclovir. This study may provide new insights into the potential association between enteric microbiota and serum metabolism and the pathogenic mechanism of M. salmoides infected by A. hydrophila, providing a scientific basis for disease control in largemouth bass breeding.

Abstract
To better understand the response of largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides) to Micropterus salmoides rhabdovirus (MSRV) infection, we investigated the intestinal bacterial flora and transcriptome profile of fish at 72 hours post-infection (hpi). Total of 1574 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified in largemouth bass spleen following MSRV infection, including 573 upregulated and 1001 downregulated genes. KEGG and GO enrichment analysis revealed that upregulated genes were enriched in certain antiviral related signaling pathway, including NOD-like receptor (NLR), RIG-I like receptors (RLR) and regulation of the interferon (IFN)-γ-mediated signaling pathway, whereas some immune-related DEGs enriched in focal adhesion (FA) and ECM-receptor interaction(ECM-RI) were downregulated, as well as genes associated with metabolic processes, such as peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPAR), adipocytokine signaling pathway, Glycerolipid and Retinol metabolism. Furthermore, the principal component analysis (PCA) and phylogenetic analysis revealed that MSRV infection significantly affected the microbiota of largemouth bass intestine; the LEfSe analysis showed that relative abundances of Streptococcus were significantly increased, while the content of Akkermansia, Enterococcus and Lactobacillus were remarkably decreased in the fish intestine following MSRV infection. Additionally, a high correlation was determined between the expressions of interferon-related upregulated genes and the relative abundance of Streptococcus by redundancy analysis (RDA). These results collectively illustrated that intestinal microbiota composition might be associated with the immune-related gene expression in largemouth bass in response to MSRV infection.

Abstract
Largemouth bass is an important commercially farmed fish in China, but the rapid expansion of its breeding has resulted in increased incidence of diseases caused by bacteria, viruses and parasites. In this study, moribund largemouth bass containing ulcer foci on body surfaces indicated the most likely pathogens were iridovirus and rhabdovirus members and this was confirmed using a combination of immunohistochemistry, cell culture, electron microscopy and conserved gene sequence analysis. We identified that these fish had been co-infected with these viruses. We observed bullet-shaped virions (100−140 nm long and 50−100 nm in diameter) along with hexagonal virions with 140 nm diameters in cell culture inoculated with tissue homogenates. The viruses were plaque purified and a comparison of the highly conserved regions of the genome of these viruses indicated that they are most similar to largemouth bass virus (LMBV) and hybrid snakehead rhabdovirus (HSHRV), respectively. Regression infection experiments indicated fish mortalities for LMBV-FS2021 and HSHRV-MS2021 were 86.7 and 11.1%, respectively. While co-infection resulted in 93.3% mortality that was significantly (p < 0.05) higher than the single infections even though the viral loads differed by >100-fold. Overall, we simultaneously isolated and identified LMBV and a HSHRV-like virus from diseased largemouth bass, and our results can provide novel ideas for the prevention and treatment of combined virus infection especially in largemouth bass.

FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2022; 123:399-408. [PMID: 35314332 DOI: 10.1016/j.fsi.2022.03.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2021] [Revised: 02/17/2022] [Accepted: 03/15/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
The phagocytic actives of B cells in fish have been proven in recent years. In this study, five positive hybridomas secreting monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against largemouth bass IgM were produced. Indirect immunofluorescence assay (IFA) demonstrated that five MAbs could specifically recognize membrane-bound IgM (mIgM) molecule of largemouth bass. Indirect ELISA and Western blotting analysis showed that all the five MAbs had no cross-reactions with the other two teleost IgMs. Flow cytometry analysis (FCM) revealed that the percentages of largemouth bass mIgM+ lymphocytes in head kidney, peripheral blood and spleen were 51.66 ± 0.608%, 16.5 ± 1.235% and 42.92 ± 1.091%, respectively. In addition, the phagocytosis rates of mIgM + lymphocytes ingesting Nocardia seriolae from head kidney, peripheral blood and spleen were calculated to be 5.413 ± 0.274%, 16.6 ± 0.289% and 26.3 ± 0.296%, respectively. The qPCR results of sorted cells indicated that most inflammatory cytokines (IFNγ, IL-1β, IL-2, IL-12β, IL-34, IL-10), chemokine (CXCL12), chemokines receptors (CXCR2, CXCR4) and genes (FcγRⅠa, NCF1, CFL, ARP2/3, CD45, Syk, MARCKS) related to FcγR-mediated phagocytic signaling pathway in phagocytic mIgM+ lymphocytes were up-regulated significantly (P < 0.05). Taken together, the results suggested that the MAb (MM06H) produced in this paper could be used as a tool to study mIgM+ lymphocytes of largemouth bass, and FcγR may participate in the phagocytosis of mIgM+ lymphocytes, which is helpful to further study the role of mIgM+ lymphocytes in innate immunity.

Abstract
Spring viremia of carp virus (SVCV), is a lethal freshwater pathogen of cyprinid fish, and Cyprinus carpio koi is a primary host species. The virus was initially described in the 1960s after outbreaks occurred in Europe, but a global expansion of SVCV has been ongoing since the late 1990s. Genetic typing of SVCV isolates separates them into 4 genotypes that are correlated with geographic origin: Ia (Asia), Ib and Ic (Eastern Europe), and Id (Central Europe). We compared infectivity and virulence of 8 SVCV strains, including 4 uncharacterized Chinese Ia isolates and representatives of genotypes Ia-d in 2 morphologically distinct varieties of koi: long-fin semi-scaled Beni Kikokuryu koi and short-fin fully scaled Sanke koi. Mortality ranged from 4 to 82% in the Beni Kikokuryu koi and 0 to 94% in the Sanke koi following immersion challenge. Genotype Ia isolates of Asian origin had a wide range in virulence (0-94%). Single isolates representing the European genotypes Ib and Ic were moderately virulent (38-56%). Each virus strain produced similar levels of mortality in both koi breeds, with the exception of the SVCV Id strain that appeared to have both moderate and high virulence phenotypes (60% in Beni Kikokuryu koi vs. 87% in Sanke koi). Overall SVCV strain virulence appeared to be a dominant factor in determining disease outcomes, whereas intraspecies variation, based on koi variety, had less of an impact. This study is the first side-by-side comparison of Chinese SVCV isolates and genotype Ia-d strain virulence in a highly susceptible host.

Measures of diagnostic precision (repeatability and reproducibility) for three test methods designed to detect spring viremia of carp virus. Prev Vet Med 2021; 188:105288.

Abstract
Spring viremia of carp virus (SVCV) is a rhabdovirus of the Sprivivirus genus and the etiological agent of an internationally regulated aquatic animal disease in several fish species, including koi carp Cyprinus carpio L. The virus has a complex lifecycle with both acute and persistent stages of infection and can cause high mortality in affected populations. In this study, the diagnostic repeatability (within laboratory agreement) and reproducibility (between laboratory agreement) of 3 tests were investigated to assess their fitness as SVCV diagnostic tools. The tests, reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) assays targeting either the SVCV glycoprotein (Q1G) or nucleoprotein (Q2N) genes and virus isolation by cell culture (VI), were performed in a blinded study with four Canadian laboratories. Test panels consisted of duplicate sets of 100 tissue samples collected from 3 SVCV prevalence populations of koi: a low-prevalence negative reference population (n = 20 fish) as well as moderate- (n = 50 fish) and high-prevalence (n = 30 fish) populations of koi experimentally infected with SVCV. The Q1G and Q2N tests were performed with kidney tissue in 3 laboratories and with brain tissue in 1 laboratory whereas pools of kidney, spleen and gill tissues were tested with the VI assay in 2 laboratories. Agreement of binary results was evaluated using the observed proportion of agreement, Cohen's kappa and Gwet's agreement coefficient (AC1) whereas the concordance correlation coefficient (ccc) and Bland Altman's limit of agreement were used to evaluate agreement of the RT-qPCR continuous data. Gwet's AC1 provided a more stable estimate of agreement than Cohen's kappa. Overall, high repeatability (AC1, 0.78-0.90) and reproducibility (AC1, 0.74-0.89) were observed for the Q1G and Q2N tests when kidney tissue was used. Lower agreement estimates of repeatability (AC1, 0.54-0.77) and reproducibility (AC1, 0.50-0.80) were obtained for the VI test. RT-qPCR reproducibility was low with kidney-brain tissue pairs (AC1, 0.09-0.46) and high with inter-test pairs of brain (AC1, 0.76-0.86) or kidney tissue (0.75-0.86). Tissue-specific differences in virus load affected test precision and informed final tissue selection. Repeatability (ccc, 0.94-0.97) and reproducibility (ccc, 0.91-0.97) estimates of agreement for paired continuous data from the RT-qPCR assays were similarly high with kidney tissue and lower with paired brain (ccc, 0.15-0.83) and kidney-brain tissues (ccc, 0.01-0.55). The high precision of Q1G and Q2N with kidney tissue suggests that the tests are performing similarly and are suitable candidates for assessment of their diagnostic accuracy.
