Strengths of Marine Shellfish Pathology
Familiar list of established pathogens and disease agents
Effective diagnostic tools for their detection
National and international networks of laboratories sharing information on their status, and new disease emergence
Deepening pool of biological/ecological knowledge informs management
Marteilia FISH for Bonamia Survey site

We Have a Good Handle on Who the Pathogens Are
Perkinsus, Haplosporidium, Bonamia, Marteilia, Mikrocytos
OsHV-1 herpesviruses (presently microvariants thereof)
QPX
Vibrio, Roseovarius bacteria
Or do we?
Perkinsus marinus
Vibrio
Bonamia exitiosa
Haplosporidium nelsoni
![Page 7: Perspective on Bivalve Mollusc Disease from the Marine ... Presentations/Carnegie...Perspective on Bivalve Mollusc Disease from the Marine Environment Ryan B.

Coming to Terms with Pathogen Diversity
New pathogens of concern emerge or are discovered all the time Perkinsus beihaiensis
Mikrocytos spp.
Haplosporidians
RLOs?
What level of genetic diversity is important? For OsHV-1, is it just the
microvariants? Or the “reference” strains too?
Perkinsus beihaiensis
OsHV-1

Powerful tool for aquatic animal health management
OIE, national lists; pathogens of concern at state level
Focuses diagnostic effort on “pathogens that count”
The Notifiable List
![Page 9: Perspective on Bivalve Mollusc Disease from the Marine ... Presentations/Carnegie...Perspective on Bivalve Mollusc Disease from the Marine Environment Ryan B. Carnegie, PhD Virginia](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042310/5ed7ce118e533201dc4ad946/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Incomplete understanding of susceptible hosts
Challenges defining pathogens, strains
Politicization of listing (or not)
Focus on specific host-pathogen systems can create blind spots with regard to other pathogens
Paradox of the List: We think it strengthens biosecurity, but may actually reduce biosecurity by creating blind spots

Problems with Lists

Histopathology a workhorse platform
PCRs for major pathogens; qPCR assays coming online
We Have Effective and Advanced Diagnostics
![Page 11: Perspective on Bivalve Mollusc Disease from the Marine ... Presentations/Carnegie...Perspective on Bivalve Mollusc Disease from the Marine Environment Ryan B. Carnegie, PhD Virginia](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042310/5ed7ce118e533201dc4ad946/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Some pathogens can only be (practically) detected by PCR (e.g., OsHV-1) Not inherently a problem
Molecular methods promise exquisite sensitivity and high specificity
Can be rapid and economical
Quantitation with qPCRs
Increasing Use of Molecular Diagnostics
![Page 12: Perspective on Bivalve Mollusc Disease from the Marine ... Presentations/Carnegie...Perspective on Bivalve Mollusc Disease from the Marine Environment Ryan B. Carnegie, PhD Virginia](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042310/5ed7ce118e533201dc4ad946/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The Downside with Molecular Diagnostics
Detection ≠ infection ≠ disease; we can only detect what is targeted
Lauren Huey Corinne Audemard
Overreliance on “advanced diagnostics” to the exclusion of broader methods may to reduce biosecurity by creating blind spots with regard to other pathogens: a Paradox of Advanced Diagnostics
Loss of expertise in microscopic recognition of pathogens increasingly limits our broader perspective
Maintaining fundamental capacity for “traditional” pathology (and virology, and microbiology, etc.) is essential
![Page 13: Perspective on Bivalve Mollusc Disease from the Marine ... Presentations/Carnegie...Perspective on Bivalve Mollusc Disease from the Marine Environment Ryan B. Carnegie, PhD Virginia](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042310/5ed7ce118e533201dc4ad946/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Which Molecular Assays Should We Use?
Careful design, proper validation of assays is essential
What is “careful design”?
Ensuring proper sensitivity and specificity
Likely the case that assays in use, particularly older assays, may not target all the diversity inherent in pathogens of concern
Perkinsus marinus
![Page 14: Perspective on Bivalve Mollusc Disease from the Marine ... Presentations/Carnegie...Perspective on Bivalve Mollusc Disease from the Marine Environment Ryan B.

Inadequacy in Validation
Few molecular assays in the mollusc realm have been properly validated
While all may “work”. . .
There is no empirical basis for recommending one over another
Multiple assays for individual pathogens across various laboratories, with little appreciation for their relative performance
Bonamia exitiosa
![Page 15: Perspective on Bivalve Mollusc Disease from the Marine ... Presentations/Carnegie...Perspective on Bivalve Mollusc Disease from the Marine Environment Ryan B.

We Have Effective Networks of Laboratories
World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE) Reference Centres
EU Reference Labs
US state, university and private laboratories (VIMS, Rutgers, Roger Williams, Florida Atlantic, Stony Brook, Cooperative Oxford Lab, Kennebec River Biosciences)
Strains the definition of “network” at times, as communication can be non-existent

Knowledge of Pathogen Biology Informs Management
![Page 18: Perspective on Bivalve Mollusc Disease from the Marine ... Presentations/Carnegie...Perspective on Bivalve Mollusc Disease from the Marine Environment Ryan B.

But Uncertainty Abounds
Basic information lacking or not readily available (unpub/gray lit) Geographic distributions
Host distributions/specificity
Life cycles & basic ecology
Can lead to regulatory paralysis Just say no = zero tolerance
Even where risk is low
Can harm typically reasonable aquaculture commerce
At least maximizes biosecurity if not economic benefits to industry

Health in the HatcheryOr Does It?
Inconvenience can drive industry to surreptitious channels, reducingbiosecurity—a Paradox of Uncertainty

Develop more broad-based surveillance programs
Promote and apply wider training in general methods like histopathology
Demand focus on assessment and validation as fundamental to assay development
The Way Forward
![Page 21: Perspective on Bivalve Mollusc Disease from the Marine ... Presentations/Carnegie...Perspective on Bivalve Mollusc Disease from the Marine Environment Ryan B.

Invest in research to close key knowledge gaps and reduce uncertainty
Apply risk analysis to avoid regulatory paralysis
The Way Forward

Complex Problems Will Require Broader Collaboration
“Not just about counting Perkinsus cells anymore”
The nature of health and disease challenges may not be obvious, or straightforward . . .
Broader expertise may be required to understand, and solve, contemporary questions

Evolutionary Perspective on Health Management
Preserving capacity for evolutionary response to disease and environmental changes is important
Can we fundamentally influence wild populations by hatchery supplementation?
If we can . . . Should we?
Chesapeake Bay example highlights the relevance of genetics to health management and conservation/restoration
