11 ADVANTAGES OF GREEN WATER VERSUS CLEAR WATER TECHNIQUE water quality conditioning pre/probiotic more hypotheses than proofs black box approach need for new research approach

12 NEW APPROACH IN THE STUDY OF HOST MICROBE INTERACTIONS host host environment microbial community known microbial community COMPLEX GNOTOBIOTIC

13 Gnotobiotic culture of Artemia axenic hatching

14 Gnotobiotic culture of Artemia axenic hatching axenic food Harvest micro algae / yeast / bacteria Day 0 Evaluation criteria survival length total biomass immune parameters Day 3 Pathogen (Vibrio campbellii)

15 Development of innovative microbial management systems pre/probiotics immunostimulants gnotobiotic Artemia system performance: survival growth qual/quant analysis of bacterial composition host gene expression analysis & identification marker genes biochemical analyses FISH & SHELLFISH LARVAE VALIDATION

16 ARTEMIA AS MODEL SYSTEM IN LARVICULTURE RESEARCH host microbe interactions breeding studies epigenetics nutrition studies bioflocs

17 ARTEMIA AS MODEL SYSTEM IN LARVICULTURE RESEARCH host microbe interactions Influencing microbial numbers or activity quorum sensing / quorum quenching Poly β hydroxybutyrate Stimulating the host s immune response heat shock proteins yeast cell wall bound glucan

18 Quorum Sensing (QS) bacteria sense and respond to environmental changes and to each other through extracellular signal molecules hormones in higher organisms AHA!

21 QS disruption to control bacterial infections use of QS inhibitors (e.g. plant extracts) degradation of QS signals by other bacteria Survival (%) Survival (%) Survival (%) Artemia Vibrio harveyi Macrobrachium Vibrio harveyi Burbot Aeromonas hydrophila Crustaceans: µm Fish: 0.01 µm

22 QS disruption to control bacterial infections use of QS inhibitors (e.g. plant extracts) degradation of QS signals by other bacteria f.ex. Bacillus strains isolated from aquatic organisms 6 signal molecule concentration [HHL] (mg/l) Signal signal molecule degradation Control LT3 LT12 LCDR Time (h)

23 QS disruption to control bacterial infections use of QS inhibitors (e.g. plant extracts) degradation of QS signals by other bacteria use of signal degrading probionts in Macrobrachium larviculture Survival (%)

24 ARTEMIA AS MODEL SYSTEM IN LARVICULTURE RESEARCH host microbe interactions Influencing microbial numbers or activity quorum sensing / quorum quenching Poly β hydroxybutyrate Stimulating the host s immune response heat shock proteins yeast cell wall bound glucan

25 Poly β hydroxybutyrate PHB as a bio control strategy in larviculture PHB = bacterial storage compound 3 hydroxybutyric acid Short chain fatty acids (SCFA) and organic acids: bacteriostatic and bacteriocidal effects on pathogens influence invasion capacity of pathogens beneficial effects on host intestinal cells Does PHB have a protective effect against Vibrio infection?

26 PHB as dietary ingredient for Artemia challenge test with pathogenic Vibrio campbellii significant increase of survival at 100 mg/l and 1000 mg/l PHB

27 Application of PHB in fish and shellfish larviculture Improved parameters: growth performance larval survival infection resistance

28 ARTEMIA AS MODEL SYSTEM IN LARVICULTURE RESEARCH host microbe interactions Influencing microbial numbers or activity quorum sensing / quorum quenching Poly β hydroxybutyrate Stimulating the host s immune response heat shock proteins yeast cell wall bound glucan

29 Heat shock proteins (Hsps) Hsp highly conserved proteins, available in all living cells Induced after exposure to stressors (heat, cold, O 2 deprivation, radicals, disease etc) Inside the cell, act as molecular chaperones assist in protein biogenesis and degradation Extracellular Hsps serve as danger signals and modulate both innate and adaptive immune responses

30 Hsps effects in Artemia Vibrio challenge test Survival after Vibrio challenge

31 Hsps effects in Artemia Vibrio challenge test Endogenous Hsp accumulation Survival after Vibrio challenge Hsp70 Hsp70 Correlation exists between enhanced protection and Hsp70 accumulation

32 new concept: use of Hsp inducing compounds heat shock is not an ideal way to enhance Hsps in aquaculture less traumatic approaches are needed to manipulate Hsps expression can compound(s) extracted from plants induce Hsp70 in aquaculture animals? can they confer protection against stress and disease?

33 Protective effect of Hsp inducing compounds against Vibrio harveyi Survival after Vibrio challenge 2-fold Hspi concentration

34 Protective effect of Hsp inducing compounds against Vibrio harveyi Survival after Vibrio challenge 2-fold Induction of Hsp70 Marker Hela cells control Hspi Hspi concentration

35 Validation with common carp Cyprinus carpio Hsp inducing plant extract protects against lethal ammonia toxicity treated = exposure to 1 h LD50 (5.92 mg L 1 NH 3 )
