PG - 139752 LID - S0048-9697(20)33272-1 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2020.139752 [doi] AB - The Ostreid herpesvirus 1 (OsHV-1) and variants, particularly the microvariants (muVars), are virulent and economically devastating viruses impacting oysters. Since 2008 OsHV-1 muVars have emerged rapidly having particularly damaging effects on aquaculture industries in Europe, Australia and New Zealand. We conducted field trials in Tomales Bay (TB), California where a non-muVar strain of OsHV-1 is established and demonstrated differential mortality of naturally exposed seed of three stocks of Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas, and one stock of Kumamoto oyster, C. sikamea. Oysters exposed in the field experienced differential mortality that ranged from 64 to 99% in Pacific oysters (Tasmania>Midori = Willapa stocks), which was much higher than that of Kumamoto oysters (25%). Injection trials were done using French (FRA) and Australian (AUS) muVars with the same oyster stocks as planted in the field and, in addition, two stocks of the Eastern oyster, C. virginica. No mortality was observed in control oysters. One C. virginica stock suffered ~10% mortality when challenged with both muVars tested. Two Pacific oyster stocks suffered 75 to 90% mortality, while one C. gigas stock had relatively low mortality when challenged with the AUS muVar (~22%) and higher mortality when challenged with the French muVar (~72%). Conversely, C. sikamea suffered lower mortality when challenged with the French muVar (~22%) and higher mortality with the AUS muVar (~44%). All dead oysters had higher viral loads (~1000x) as measured by quantitative PCR relative to those that survived. However, some survivors had high levels of virus, including those from species with lower mortality. Field mortality in TB correlated with laboratory mortality of the FRA muVar (69% correlation) but not with that of the AUS muVar, which also lacked correlation with the FRA muVar. The variation in response to OsHV-1 variant challenges by oyster species and stocks demonstrates the need for empirical assessment of multiple OsHV-1 variants. CI - Copyright (c) 2020 Elsevier B.V.
