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....

BCA: development of generic contingency plans for disease emergencies of aquatic animals

Project number: 1997-214.80
Project Status:
Completed
Budget expenditure: $0.00
Principal Investigator: Patrick Hone
Organisation: CSIRO Australian Animal Health Laboratory
Project start/end date: 30 Jun 1997 - 29 Apr 1998

Need

Development of contingency plans for significant aquatic animal diseases is a critical first step in the management of disease outbreaks. In this respect, aquatic animal health policy development is lagging behind terrestrial animal health policy by approximately 20 years.

At the Melbourne workshops, all sectors of the fishing industry strongly supported the need for a national approach to aquatic animal disease control issues and identified the writing of contingency plans for disease incursions to be an important task. Also they noted there was a need to build on the unanimous support for this contingency planning process and there was an expectation that some generic, sectoral plans could be developed very rapidly.

Objectives

1. Write four generic (enclosed water
open freshwater
net/open culture marine
open marine) contingency planning manuals for the occurence of significant diseases in aquatic animals to draft form.
2. Following consultation with industry, State government and Commonwealth government representatives, produce four final generic contingency planning manuals.

Evaluation of point of care (POC) tests for White Spot Syndrome Virus (WSSV)

The CSIRO Australian Centre for Disease Preparedness (ACDP) Fish Diseases Laboratory (AFDL), in collaboration with Biosecurity Queensland, conducted a laboratory-based evaluation of commercially available point-of-care (POC) tests designed to detect white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) in the field. The...

Determining the susceptibility of Australian Penaeus monodon and Penaeus merguiensis to newly identified enzootic (YHV7) and exotic (YHV8 and YHV10) Yellow head virus (YHV) genotypes

In recent years, new genotypes within the yellow head complex of viruses have been discovered in farmed prawns both within Australia and overseas. This report describes research undertaken at the CSIRO Australian Centre for Disease Preparedness Fish Diseases Laboratory (ACDP AFDL), Geelong, Victoria...
