摘要： In 2017, a clinical disease outbreak resulted in substantial mortality of adults and larvae of cultured Chinese rice-field eels (Monopterus albus) on a farm in Hubei, Central China. A rhabdovirus was isolated from moribund specimens, and typical clinical symptoms associated with an outbreak included an enlarged and swollen head. This differed from previous observations. Histological changes included necrosis and cavities of various sizes within the brain and kidney. Homogenized tissues of diseased Chinese rice-field eels were screened for viral isolation using six different fish cell lines. A rhabdovirus was isolated following observation of cytopathic effect (CPE) in a gibel carp brain (GiCB) cell line and confirmed by RT-PCR. Electron microscopy showed large numbers of rhabdovirus-shaped particles in the cytoplasm of the brain cells of the diseased Chinese rice-field eels and in the infected GiCB cell line. This virus has been named Chinese rice-field eel rhabdovirus (CrERV), and the complete nucleotide sequence of CrERV was cloned. This rhabdovirus is composed of 11,545 nucleotides with the following genomic organization: 3-N-P-M-G-L-5. The genes are separated by conserved gene junctions, and phylogenetic analysis of the L sequence revealed that CrERV forms a separate branch with Siniperca chuatsi rhabdovirus (SCRV) and hybrid snakehead rhabdovirus C1207 (HSHRV-C1207). This is the first report of the complete sequence of CrERV from the Chinese rice-field eel in China.
