Cyprinid herpesvirus 2 (CyHV-2), which infects goldfish and crucian carp causing high mortality, is an emerging viral pathogen worldwide. The genome of CyHV-2 is large and comprises double-stranded DNA, including several genes similar to cyprinid herpesvirus 1, ictalurid herpesvirus-1, cyprinid herpesvirus 3, and ranid herpesvirus-1. Genes of DNA viruses are expressed in three temporal phases: immediate-early (IE), early (E), and late (L) genes. Viral IE genes initiate transcription as soon as the virus enters the host, without viral DNA replication. IE gene products enable the efficient expression of E and L genes or regulate the host to initiate virus replication. In the present study, five IE genes of CyHV-2 were identified, including open reading frame (ORF)54, ORF121, ORF141, ORF147, and ORF155. Time course analysis and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction confirmed five IE genes, thirty-four E genes, and thirty-nine L genes. In addition, all 150 ORFs identified in the CyHV-2 genome are transcribed, and are expressed in chronological order, similar to other herpesviruses. This study is the first to identify the IE genes of CyHV-2, which will provide more information for viral molecular characterization.

Herpes viruses are highly contagious agents affecting all classes of vertebrates, thus causing serious health, social, and economic losses. Within the One Health concept, novel therapeutics are extensively studied for both veterinary and human control and management of the infection, but the optimal strategy has not been invented yet. Lactic acid bacteria are key components of the microbiome that are known to play a protective role against pathogens as one of the proposed mechanisms involves compounds released from their metabolic activity.

Cyvirus cyprinidallo 2 (CyHV-2) is the pathogen of herpesviral hematopoietic necrosis (HVHN) that mainly infects goldfish Carassius auratus and crucian carp C. carassius and is characterized by high infectivity and pathogenicity. The availability of rapid and convenient detection methods is essential for early detection of CyHV-2.

Background/objectives: Anguillid herpesvirus 1 (AngHV-1) (recently renamed Cyvirus anguillidallo 1) is the etiologic agent of a lethal disease that affects several eel species. It is thought to be one of the main infectious agents causing a population decline in wild eels and economic loss within the eel aquaculture sector. To date, no vaccines are available against AngHV-1.

Article Synopsis
- Researchers created and characterized a continuous cell line, KM cells, from koi muscle, demonstrating high viability and a stable diploid chromosome count after over 70 passages.
- Optimal growth conditions for KM cells were found to be in medium 199 with 10% fetal bovine serum at 25°C, and they showed promising results for gene expression studies due to high transfection efficiency.
- The KM cell line’s response to infections was notable, as it produced more spring viraemia of carp virus (SVCV) than a standard cell line, while showing no reaction to other viruses, indicating its potential for studying SVCV pathogenesis.

The live attenuated vaccine (P7-P8 strain) against cyprinid herpesvirus 2 (CyHV-2) infection of goldfish shows high protective efficacy. However, the underlying immune mechanism induced by P7-P8 vaccination remains unknown. It is known that the fish survived in the primary infection with CyHV-2 by the virus non-permissive high temperature (HT) water treatment elicit immunity against secondary virus challenge.
