Abstract
The present study investigated the virulence and expression of innate immunity genes in isolates of infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV) in Gangwon province, South Korea, by challenging rainbow trout, Atlantic salmon, and coho salmon. Eight IHNV isolates were used to infect RTG-2 cells for viral replication using plaque assays. Three isolates with the highest replication rates, the RtPc0314g and RtPc0314c isolates of the JRt-Shizuoka type and the RtPc0816g isolate of the JRt-Nagano type, were experimentally infected into the fish. In rainbow trout, both RtPc0314c and RtPc0314g isolates showed 100% cumulative mortality while the RtPc0816g isolate showed 60% cumulative mortality for 14 days. In contrast, all three isolates showed <60% cumulative mortality in Atlantic salmon and coho salmon. The expression of G genes in the kidney was higher than that in the spleen-infected fish, with the highest expression observed in the kidneys of rainbow trout. The relative expression levels of innate immunity genes were higher in rainbow trout than in Atlantic salmon and coho salmon. The expression level of immunoglobulin M increased until day 7, and the expression of type I interferon was higher in the spleen than in other tissues. The expression of Mx-1 was higher in the kidney and liver than other tissues. These results indicate that IHNV isolates from Gangwon province show host-specific virulence in rainbow trout and that their virulence and replication were higher in JRt-Shizuoka type than in JRt-Nagano type isolates.
