Amoebic gill disease in Scotland - Norway - South Africa [2011 - Ongoing]
Summary: FROM:
The Australian Seafood CRC
2012/712 Amoebic Gill Disease (AGD) in Scotland and Ireland – Impact, Control Procedures and Investigations
By Dr Alistair Brown and Dr Carlos Zarza
Amoebic Gill Disease (AGD), caused by Neoparamoeba perurans is currently the most serious disease facing the Tasmanian salmon industry. Each year, this disease costs the industry millions of dollars in terms of loss of production potential, stock losses and treatment costs. Additionally, it goes without saying that AGD has serious animal welfare implications. In recent years, AGD has started to emerge in salmon farming operations worldwide, causing significant stock losses. This presents a unique opportunity for the Tasmanian industry to conduct collaborative research with our international counterparts to speed up our understanding of N. perurans and investigate alternative treatment options. By visiting the Northern Hemisphere in March, we will have the opportunity to influence the direction of their research and investigations for the upcoming Northern Hemisphere summer which will hopefully be beneficial to the Tasmanian industry.
Discussions were held with technical experts from Scotland, Ireland and the USA. In total, eight farms were visited in Scotland and Ireland
Forecast questions:
Is it only a matter of time before AGD becomes a major problem in Norway?
~1 year for AGD to go from Ireland to Scotland.
~1 year for AGD to spread throughout Scottland from Argyll to Shetland.
How long will it take to make the crossing from Shetland to Norway or did AGD come from the 2006 Norwegian outbreak?
Are the conditions right for AGD in Norway?
Is this a climate change issue or a cyclical warm current event?
What role will wild migrating salmon play in the spread of AGD to farms?
What would be the consequence of an AGD incursion in Norway?
What are your thoughts? Please comment.

This new disease has been known as early mortality syndrome and is now commonly referred to as acute hepatopancreatic degenerative necrotic syndrome (AHDNS). Mass mortailty of shrimp from AHDNA has been reported in China (2009), Vietnam (2010) and Malaysia (2011). In June 2011, provinces of the Mekong Delta suffered unprecedented losses with tiger shrimp in 40,000 hectares of farm area affected. Over 11,000 hectares of shrimp farms in Bac Lieu have been destroyed. In 6,200 hectares of shrimp farms in In Tra Vinh, about 330 million shrimp have died causing a loss of over VND12 billion. In Soc Trang, 20,000 out of 25,000 hectares of shrimp farms have been destroyed, causing VND1.5 trillion (US$75 million) in losses. Initial evidence led investigators to beleive the disease was caused from microsporidiosis of the hepatopancreas. Relavent reference in the scientific literature may be; Kasetsart J. (2009). The Effects of Microsporidian (Thelohania) Infection on the Growth and Histopathological Changes in Pond-reared Pacific White Shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei). Nat. Sci. 43: 680 - 688. These views maybe changing with the disease now possibly related to liver necrosis. In Mekong Delta of Vietnam, AHDNA has been associated with the use of pesticides.

Lake Kinneret - Virus linked to tilapia mortalities [emerging disease Oct 2011 - ongoing]
Summary: For over one decade many fish species from the Sea of Galilee (Lake Kinneret - Isreal) have been suspected of dying from a mysterious disease.
The disease has been found in about 15% of the lakes fish population and also in fish ponds in the Hula Valley. So far, the disease is known to affect species such as St. Peter's Fish (tilapia), silver carp, carp, and mullet.
The disease was investigated in September 2011 by Isreal's Ministry of Agriculture Veterinary Services, but at that time no pathogen had been identified. Recent Ministry of Agriculture investigations have identified the problem is worsening in tilapia, which may be linked to the discovery of a virus affecting the eye.
The Ministry says that the virus poses absolutely no peril to public health, to those either eating the fish or swimming with them.

The duty, announced by the US Department of Commerce on May 29, is sure to raise exporters' costs. Together with the existing 3.5 per cent anti-dumping duty, exporters now have to pay nearly 9 per cent of the value of their shipments to the US Custom and Border Patrol upfront at the port of entry. This is an additional cost that most likely will be passed on to shrimp producers.
