The disease-causing koi herpes virus (KHV), also known as cyprinid herpesvirus-3 (CyHV3), causes mass mortality of koi and carp. Koi (Cyprinus carpio) is a host for KHV, one of 12 virus species in the Alloherpesviridae family. We examined the effects of KHV disease koi (KK), and on koi×red common carp (KR) and red common carp×koi (RK) cross, using a virus challenge test. The infected fish had clinical signs that included gill necrosis and skin lesions. The RK and KR were highly more resistant (cumulative mortality: RK; 6% and KR; 8%) to KHV infection than KK fish (cumulative mortality: 28%). KHV DNA was confirmed in the tissues of all dead fish in groups by use of polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and the presence of the KHV protein in kidney was confirmed by immunohistochemistry. Histological analysis showed severe gill lesions and fusion of the lamellae in KK fish, but less severe damage in RK fish. In immunohistochemistry analysis, the KHV protein localized in the cytoplasm of infected kidney cells of KK, but the cross groups had lower levels of KHV antigen. Our data indicate that the cross groups had increased resistance to KHV disease.

Common DNA fragments of the ${\beta}$-globin gene were observed from six races of the adult common carp: Hybrid-Yamato, Japanese wild type, Mirror, Suwa-Yamato, Scale German, and Saku-Yamato. Chromosomal DNAs isolated from the above six races were digested with restriction endonucleased EcoRI and PstI. The digested fragments were transferred onto nitrocellulose filter and hybridized with a probe of carp ${\beta}$-globin cDNA. Molecular sizes of the hybridized DNA fragments digested with EcoRI were 3.6Kb(Kilo base), 4.3Kb and 15Kb in Hybrid-Yamato, Japanese wild type, Mirror, Scale German and Saku-Yamato carp DNAs. In Scale German and Saku-Yamato carp DNAs, two and one more hybridized DNA fragments were observed, respectively. Molecular sizes of the hybridized DNA fragments digested with PstI were 2.2Kb, 6.5Kb, 7.8Kb and 9.2Kb in Hybrid-Yamato, 2.2Kb, 6.5Kb and 9.2Kb in Japanese wild type, 2.2Kb, 6.5Kb, 7.8Kb, and 13Kb in Mirror, 2,2Kb, 5,5Kb, 6.5Kb, 7.8Kb, 9.2Kb and13Kb in Scale German, and 2.2Kb, 5.5Kb, 6.5Kb, 9.2Kb and Saku-Yamato carp DNA. Therefore, depending on carps, three to six DNA fragments were hybridized with ${\beta}$-globin gene probe. Thus it indicated polymorphysm in the globin gene family of carp.

We studied the effects of the proprietary prebiotic Immunogen$^{(R)}$ on the growth, hematology and gut microbiota of common carp fingerlings. A basal diet was formulated using common feed ingredients and supplemented with Immunogen$^{(R)}$ at concentrations of 0, 5, 10, 20 and $40g\;kg^{-1}$, each of which was tested experimentally on replicated groups of fish. The trials ran for 8 weeks. Common carp fingerlings with an initial weight of $4.82{\pm}0.05g$ were randomly distributed among the experimental tanks at a stocking density of 25 fish per tank. The experimental diets were provided thrice per day; on each occasion the fingerlings were given a weight of feed that amounted to 4% of fish biomass. At the end of the experimental period, we determined the growth performance, feed conversion ratio, hematological parameters, body composition and gut micro-flora parameters of the test fish. Inclusion of $5g\;kg^{-1}$Immunogen$^{(R)}$ in the diet significantly improved growth performance and feed utilization in comparison with controls. However, the whole-body composition of the fish was not significantly influenced by prebiotic inclusion. Inclusion of $5g\;kg^{-1}$ Immunogen$^{(R)}$ significantly increased the total bacterial and Lactobacillus counts in fish intestines, but these bacterial parameters were significantly negatively impacted by higher concentrations of the prebiotic. Red blood cells counts were increased by prebiotic dietary supplementation at concentrations of 5 and $10g\;kg^{-1}$ prebiotic. Glucose and cholesterol levels were elevated by administration of Immunogen$^{(R)}$. Thus, dietary supplementation with $5g\;kg^{-1}$ Immunogen$^{(R)}$ improved fingerling common carp growth performance and feed utilization, and beneficially influenced the gut microflora

Two experiments were conducted to study the effect of using Egyptian mallow leaf meal (EMLM) on growth performance and feed utilization of common carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) in experiment 1. Four diets containing 0, 5, 15 and 25% EMLM were included at the expense of berseem leaf meal and fed to fingerlings of common carp for 98 days. The results showed that the average daily gain, feed intake and feed coefficient ratio (FCR) were improved (p<0.05) with increasing the level of EMLM in the diet. Fish fed 25% EMLM were similar to control fish (30% berseem leaf meal) in the productive value (PPV%). In experiment 2, five diets were prepared to contain: 1) 30% berseem leaf meal, 2) 25% untreated EMLM, 3) 25% cooked EMLM 4) 25% treated EMLM with 0.5% NaOH and 5) 25% treated EMLM with 1% NaOH. The results showed that diet containing EMLM gave the best growth performance and feed utilization. However, diet containing 1% NaOH treated EMLM superior to the other diets in PPV% and energy utilization. Diets containing 0.5% NaOH-treated EMLM or cooked EMLM decreased the protein utilization compared to those containing EMLM.

Koi herpesvirus (KHV), also known as Cyprinid herpes virus 3 (Cyprinid 3) is lethal disease in common carp and koi (Cyprinus carpio). Two different groups (KK and RK) were infected KHV by intraperitoneal injection. Fish for gene expression analysis were sampled at 0 h, 12 h, 24 h, 48 h and 72 h post infection (p.i). The results showed that two immune related gene, Interferons (INFs) ${\alpha}{\beta}$ and Interleukin (IL)-12 p35 induced a high response in RK. The IL-12 p35 cytokine and Toll-like receptor (TLR) 9 were significantly high expressed on 48 h post infection (p.i) in RK as compared to the KK. The histopatological examination reveals focal necrosis in liver and infiltrate of lymphocytes in spleen of KK as compared to the RK. In immunohistochemistry analysis, the KHV protein high expressed in the infected kidney cell and slenocyte of KK. Therefore, the expression of IL-12 p35, IFN ${\alpha}{\beta}$ and TLR 9 may provide a potentially genes related with KHV resistance in Koi and red common carp ${\times}$ koi.

Parasitic infection is among the most common problems for carp cultivation. They are also important for the principal entrance of other hazardous infections as well. This study was carried out for determining of parasitic fauna of two major carp known as silver and grass carp with the comparison of prevalence value and intensity rate of parasites among them, alongside the relationship between the biometric characteristics and host sex with the infection level. For this purpose, a total of 94 fish samples were caught randomly using a fishing net, from Guilan ponds during spring and summer of the year 2018 and transported alive to the laboratory. Upon arriving, the biometric characteristics and genus of each carp were measured individually. Specimens were then acquired from the skin, gills, and eyes of the carp and examined according to standard parasitology methods. Recovered parasites were observed under a light microscope and then fixed for identification. As the result, the occurrence and intensity in the higher length group were comparatively greater than the lower one. Also, the prevalence and intensity of total parasites in male carp were higher than in females. In this research, Dactylogyrus hypophthalmichthys and Dactylogyrus aristhichtys were observed in silver carp and Dactylogyrus lamellatus was detected in grass carp. In the paper below, we found that the host specificity varies in different species of Dactylogyrus isolated from grass carp and silver carp.

This study is focused on the effect of phycobiliprotein extraction of Gracilaria on the quality of common carp burgers, and the application of nanoliposomes containing pigment in the improvement of its antimicrobial and antioxidant activity of burgers during refrigerated storage in 18 days. Burgers were incorporated with phycobiliprotein and liposomal phycobiliprotein (2.5% and 5% w/w), and their chemical and microbial changes in terms of pH, peroxide value (PV), thiobarbituric acid (TBA), total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N), total viable counts (TVC), psychrotrophic bacterial counts (PTC), and sensory characteristics were evaluated. Results presented a nanoliposome size of about 515.5 nm with capable encapsulation efficiency (83.98%). Our results showed non-encapsulated phycobiliprotein could delay the deterioration of common carp burgers, as a reduction in PV, TBA, and TVB-N, TVC, and PTC values in burgers treated with free and nano encapsulated phycobiliprotein. Moreover, the potential of phycobiliprotein was improved when it was encapsulated into chitosan coated liposomes. Burgers treated with 5% nanoliposomes displayed the lowest amount of lipid oxidation and microbial deterioration in comparison to others during storage. According to chemical, microbial and sensory evaluation, the shelf life of common carp burgers was increased in samples treated with encapsulated phycobiliprotein at 2.5% and 5%, as compared to the control (p ≤ 0.05).

This study investigated cytogenetic and hematological and histological characteristics between diploid and spontaneous triploid on Cyprinidae (Crucian carp, Carassius auratus; crucian carp, C. cuvieri and common carp, Cyprinus carpio) in four major rivers of Korea. In our results, DNA contents of triploid Cyprinidae were 50% more than those of diploid Cyprinidae. Also, erythrocyte size of triploid Cyprinidae was 50% larger than those of diploid Cyprinidae. In all sampling rivers, sex ratios of C. auratus were biased to female, and especially, triploid groups of C. auratus were all female groups (p<0.05). In principle, sex ratios of C. cuvieri and common carp were equivalent between male and female.

국내 농약등록을 위한 어독성시험은 잉어(Cyprinus carpio)와 송사리(Oryzias latipes) 그리고 미꾸리(Misgurnus anguillicaudatus)를 대상으로 하고 있으나, 어독성은 잉어에 대한 독성값으로 평가되어지고 있다. 그러나 잉어는 실내사육이 어렵고 사육환경에 따른 감수성 차이와 한정된 시험시기 등 문제점이 제기되고 있어 시험종에 대한 재검토가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 잉어와 송사리에 대한 급성독성시험 결과를 이용하여 두 시험종간의 상관성과 감수성을 파악하고 농약 어독성시험을 위해 보다 현실적으로 적합한 시험종을 검토하고자 하였다. 급성독성시험은 국내 등록농약 70종에 대한 시험을 수행하였으며, 48시간 $LC_{50}$값을 산출하여 비교하였다. 그 결과, 잉어와 송사리의 상관계수(R)가 0.8480로 상관성이 높았고 종간 감수성에 있어서 잉어와 송사리의 $LC_{50}$값이 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 잉어와 송사리에 대한 $LC_{50}$값을 현재 국내 어독성 분류 방법에 따라 분류하였을 경우, 18종 농약에서 분류 등급의 변동이 발생하였으나 특이한 경향성은 없었다. 그러므로 급성독성의 상관성 및 감수성 측면과 어류 사육에 대한 표준화 측면에서 잉어보다 유리한 송사리에 대해서 독성시험종으로서의 재검토가 필요하다.
