NCCP: Review of Carp control via commercial exploitation

The present study, undertaken by Charles Sturt University, was developed to investigate the potential for commercial, or subsidised, fishery exploitation to effectively control carp populations in Australia. Using published literature examples of fish (and other) vertebrate pest-removal...

NCCP: Development of strategies to optimise release and clean up strategies underpinning possible use of herpesvirus 3 (CyHV-3) for carp biocontrol in Australia

This study was undertaken by Charles Sturt University. Although there is a considerable knowledge gap in understanding the social-economic and environmental impacts of a fish kill, it is essential to recognise the risks associated with these events – especially water quality. In order to...

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: essential studies on cyprinid herpesvirus 3 (CyHV-3) prior to release of the virus in Australian waters

This project, undertaken by CSIRO, aimed to determine the most important form of transmission of CyHV-3 to Cyprinus carpio (common carp). This was addressed through experiments to determine: (1) The relative amounts of virus in the skin and mucus of infected fish vs shed...

NCCP: Development of hydrological, ecological and epidemiological modelling to inform a CyHV3 release strategy for the biocontrol of carp in the Murray Darling Basin

This report details work undertaken by CSIRO and RMIT University for the National Carp Control Plan (NCCP). The present study develops a series of interrelated hydrological, ecological, and epidemiological models that enable the development of a strategy to inform feasibility assessment and...

NCCP: Preparing for carp herpesvirus: a carp biomass estimate for eastern Australia

This study was undertaken by the Arthur Rylah Institute for the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning. Carp occur in a broad range of aquatic habitats (e.g. rivers, estuaries, wetlands, lakes, impoundments and irrigation networks) and their density varies spatially and temporally...

NCCP: Cyprinid herpesvirus 3 and its relevance to humans.

The present study, undertaken by the Australian National University, was developed to investigate the potential direct risks to human health of cyprinid herpesvirus 3 (CyHV-3), as a part of investigations into species specificity of the virus under the National Carp Control Plan (NCCP). The NCCP,...
