Summary
The 10/3 isolate responsible for infectious swim bladder inflammation in carp was biologically characterized and compared withRhabdovirus carpio. 10/3 virus replicated in a variety of cell cultures derived from fish, chicken and mammalian origin at 20° C. Its replication cycle in FHM cells lasted only 8–10 hours, and the virus was released slowly from the cells into the culture medium.
Plaque morphology of 10/3 virus andRhabdovirus carpio was similar, and cross-neutralization tests showed a close relationship between the two virus strains.
10/3 virus produced a disease in carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) and Guppies (Lebistes reticulatus P.) similar to swim bladder inflammation after experimental infection. The clinical and pathological changes partly resembled the changes reported in carp after experimental infection withRhabdovirus carpio.
The importance of the common etiology of spring viremia caused byRhabdo-virus carpio and swim bladder inflammation is discussed, since up to now the disease complexes and their etiology were considered to be separate entities.
