Evaluating of the role of direct fish-to-fish contact on horizontal transmission of Koi herpesvirus

Epidemiological modelling has been undertaken to evaluate the impact of CyHV-3 as part of an assessment of the feasibility of this virus as a potential biocontrol for carp in Australia. The present project provides information to support key components of the mechanisms of virus transmission which...

NCCP: Determination of the susceptibility of silver perch, Murray cod and rainbow trout to infection with CyHV-3

This research sought to build on the experimental evidence regarding non-target species susceptibility to CyHV-3. Three species which had been previously tested, but for which additional evidence would be needed to confirm non-susceptibility included Rainbow Trout, Silver Perch and Murray Cod.

NCCP: Understanding the genetics and genomics of carp strains and susceptibility to CyHV-3

To assess the risk that rapid resistance to CyHV-3 might develop, we undertook an extension to the integrated modelling with the objectives of defining what exactly is “resistance” in the context of viral biocontrol, and to elucidate the mechanisms (pathways) by which it might develop....

Various NCCP Operations case studies for the Mid Murray region, and Murray and Murrumbidgee river systems and GIS support for two other NCCP case studies (Lachlan and Loch 1 - Loch 3)

National Carp Control Plan (NCCP) to develop and report on a conceptual case study and cost estimate for the carp virus deployment and management across the Southern Murray-Darling Basin catchment. The case study was undertaken in three parts, being: I. An initial investigation designed to develop a...

National Carp Control Plan - Biosecurity Strategy for the Koi (Cyprinus carpio) industry

In recent years, CyHV-3 has been explored as a possible biocontrol measure for European carp in Australia. This virus is an OIE listed disease that at this time remains exotic to Australia. The potential release of CyHV-3 into Australian waters would introduce new risks to Australia’s koi...

NCCP: Socio-economic impact assessment and stakeholder engagement

The present study, undertaken by University of Canberra, was developed to investigate the potential to engender support for the recommendations included in the NCCP byassessing potential impacts of carp control on different groups, and ensuring key stakeholders are able to access, understand and...

The End of an Era: Acknowledging the socio-cultural history and contribution of Australian small-scale fisheries

With little fanfare or attention, commercial fishing in the Gippsland Lakes in eastern Victoria ceased on 1 April 2020. The small-scale commercial fishery, which was crucial to the establishment of the town of Lakes Entrance roughly 150 years ago, was closed by the Victorian State...

NCCP: Population dynamics and Carp biomass estimates

This study was undertaken by the Arthur Rylah Institute for the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning. Carp (Cyprinus carpio) is Australia’s most invasive pest fish. To facilitate more effective management, the Australian Government is considering release of a Carp herpesvirus...

NCCP: Carp questionnaire survey and community mapping tool - empowering the community to be part of the national solution to Carp

One of the potential tools for controlling carp impacts is a biocontrol agent (ie, Cyprinid herpesvirus 3). If approved for use as a biocontrol for carp in Australia’s waterways, detailed information will be required to plan the release of the virus, and to mitigate any adverse impacts. More...
