Article Synopsis
- - The study focused on developing transgenic Anabaena sp. PCC7120 algae with the trans-vp28 gene to enhance resistance in Litopenaeus vannamei shrimp against white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) by using high-quality promoters, identifying Pcpc560 as the most effective.
- - Shrimps were fed the transgenic algae for varying durations before being exposed to WSSV, with survival rates recorded showing significant improvement: 50% for 0 days, 76.67% for 2 days, and 80% for 4 days of immunization.
- - The transgenic algae also exhibited enhanced antioxidant enzyme activities compared to control groups, highlighting the effectiveness of the Pcpc560
is the major farmed shrimp species worldwide. White spot disease due to white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) is severely affecting shrimp worldwide, causing extensive economic losses in culture. This is the first study that applied combined transcriptomic and metabolomic analysis to study the effects on the hepatopancreas after WSSV challenge.

In the present study, we used PCR to determine the shrimp infectious dose 50% endpoint (SID50 ml-1) of a Chinese isolate of WSSV in 5 different sizes of pathogen-free Litopenaeus vannamei inoculated intramuscularly. The lethal dose 50% endpoint (LD50 ml-1) was also determined from the percentage of dead shrimp.
