French scallops: a new host for ostreid herpesvirus-1.
Sporadic high mortalities were reported among larval French scallops (Pecten maximus). Electron microscopy of moribund larvae revealed particles with the characteristics of a herpesvirus in association with cellular lesions. PCR and DNA sequencing showed that the virus is a variant of ostreid herpesvirus-1 that has already been described in clams and oysters. This is the first description of a ...
متن کاملOstreid herpesvirus: A pathogen of oysters
Ostreid Herpesvirus-1 (OsHV-1), OsHV-1 μvar and other variants are herpesviruses causing heavy mortalities, with losses ranging from 50 to 100%, on Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas), an important species worldwide cultured. Ostreid Herpesvirus-1 is one of the top 50 largest viral genome; OsHV-1 μvar is a variant of the virus OsHV-1 showing a systematic deletion of 12/13 base pairs sequence bet...
متن کاملA Genome-Wide Association Study for Host Resistance to Ostreid Herpesvirus in Pacific Oysters (Crassostrea gigas)
Ostreid herpesvirus (OsHV) can cause mass mortality events in Pacific oyster aquaculture. While various factors impact on the severity of outbreaks, it is clear that genetic resistance of the host is an important determinant of mortality levels. This raises the possibility of selective breeding strategies to improve the genetic resistance of farmed oyster stocks, thereby contributing to disease...
متن کاملOstreid herpesvirus type 1 replication and host response in adult Pacific oysters, Crassostrea gigas
Since 2008, massive mortality outbreaks associated with OsHV-1 detection have been reported in Crassostrea gigas spat and juveniles in several countries. Nevertheless, adult oysters do not demonstrate mortality in the field related to OsHV-1 detection and were thus assumed to be more resistant to viral infection. Determining how virus and adult oyster interact is a major goal in understanding w...
متن کاملOstreid herpesvirus 1 (OsHV-1) detection among three successive generations of Pacific oysters (Crassostrea gigas).
Ostreid Herpesvirus 1 (OsHV-1) was likely detected in Pacific oysters, Crassostrea gigas, at different stages of development. Viral infections were associated with high mortality rates in the spat and larvae. Furthermore, the persistance of OsHV-1 in asymptomatic adults was demonstrated by detection of viral DNA and proteins. In the present study, three successive generations of C. gigas (G0 an...
