clear results)
10. AHPND Risk factors
• Advance information from Thailand
• Live polychaetes
• Movement of live aquatic animals
• Lack of GAP
• Weak biosecurity
• Climate change….dead plankton (substrate for bacteria)
AHPND: probiotics, oral diets, antibiotics
• Ban from some countries on importation of probiotics from AHPND+
countries (Philippines)
• Countries preparing their own probiotics (Thailand, Indonesia)
• Antibiotics not effective (Vietnam)
• Oral diets: eco-friendly products and herbs (Malaysia)
11. Positive impacts
• Improved capacity on diagnostics, surveillance
• Increased awareness
• Improved aquatic animal health services
• Improved polices and regulations
• Government/academe/producer partnership
• Government action plans – targeted to AHPND – lessons and experience
can be used when dealing with future emergencies
• Thailand showing signs of recovery
• WSSV, IHHNV, MBV
• White faeces disease
• EHP
• Vibriosis
Other important diseases
• Need to understand mixed
infection with AHPND
WSSV and AHPND (Vietnam:
more AHPND than WSSV with
climate change)
12. Research

14. III. Plenary workshop to identify gaps, policy recommendations and priority
areas for R&D collaboration to address these gaps
Issues considered for future actions/studies on AHPND and HPM-EHP based on
the inputs from AMS representatives, invited experts, and private sectors
AHPND
Use of live feeds for broodstock (specifically polychaetes), as these were
proven to be carriers of the pathogen;
Copy SPF (P. vannamei) hatchery - effect of inbreeding/genetic erosion on
susceptibility to AHPND; breeding programs are long-term, usually highly
expensive and need sufficient resources and therefore should be carefully
planned and efficiently implemented and sustained;
Misconception about SPF shrimps and its use; ban on SPF broodstock and live
shrimp products from AHPND-affected countries;
15. Vertical transmission of AHPND bacteria (broodstock to postlarvae);
Toxin plasmid transfer to other Vibrio spp. and possibly other bacterial
pathogens that are common in the aquatic/rearing environment; V. harveyi
and V. owensii were already reported to carry the AHPND toxin plasmid;
Environmental risk factors for spread and outbreak of AHPND;
Mixed infection with other shrimp pathogens (Covert Mortality Disease
(CMD), EHP, WSSV);
Efficacy of green water technology in preventing AHPND; currently being
practiced in Viet Nam and the Philippines with some degree of success;
Issue on extensive/non-registered farms: risk that they may pose to the
spread and occurrence of the disease;
Probiotics: locally produced vs. imported; issue on banning probiotics for use
in preventing AHPND;
16. Biosecurity capacities of countries to prevent the entry of the pathogen;
Emergency preparedness and contingency planning;
Sharing of information and experiences among countries affected and not
affected by the disease;
Lack of disease surveillance in processing plants and the wild population
Antimicrobial resistance;
Certification of Aquatic Animal Health (AAH) Professionals (other than
veterinarians); and,
Cooperation of government and producers in the prevention and
management of AHPND. Strengthen government and private sector
partnership.
17. Hepatopancreatic microsporidiosis (HPM)
Identification of the reservoir of the pathogen to include live
feeds other crustaceans that are common in the aquatic
environment;
Detailed study on the effect of the pathogen on growth and
survival of infected shrimps;
Preventive and control measures;
Co-infection with other important pathogens of shrimps (viral
and bacterial), and its association to other shrimps diseases
(e.g. White Feces Syndrome, AHPND)
18. Regional Policy Recommendations
Issues/Gaps Regional Policy Recommendations
Legislative and policy
frameworks
• Develop a national Strategy and Policy Framework
• Member countries should work to harmonize legislation and regulation
related to aquatic animal health management including the legislation
for transboundary movement of live aquatic animals
Strategy for
prevention, control,
and biosecurity
• Compliance with good aquaculture practices to maintain optimal
environmental conditions during the culture period.
• Establish effective prevention system for EMS/AHPND and other
diseases based on recent R&D results
Marker-assisted selective breeding
Development of vaccine against AHPND
IgY as feed additive (based on experiments, high concentration of IgY in egg
yolk can reduce the mortality of AHPND-infected shrimp)
Nano-bubble technology: ozone nano-bubble can prevent AHPND
Pond bottom management: use of central drain system
Phage therapy
19. Issues/Gaps Regional Policy Recommendations
Develop and implement the Guidelines on Health Management and
Good Practices to Prevent EMS/AHPND and other trans-boundary
diseases
Strictly implement the reporting system to relevant authorities
and/or Competent Authority at country, regional and international
levels (Early warning system, Monitoring system, Information for the
regular report, annual report)
Emergency preparedness and contingency plan (should be the
responsibility of Competent Authority)
Funds should be made available as joint endeavor by private and
public sectors
Rapid and reliable
detection of AHPND
Diagnostic methods: should follow the OIE guidelines
Develop tool kits
Ensure availability and capacity of laboratory services, either public
or private
20. Issues/Gaps Regional Policy Recommendations
Research and
development
program at
regional and
national level
Use of live feeds for broodstock (specifically polychaetes)
- proven to be carriers of the pathogen
Effect of inbreeding/genetic erosion on susceptibility to
AHPND
Vertical transmission, risk factors, mixed infections
Toxin plasmid transfer to other Vibrio species and possibly
other bacterial pathogens
Use of greenwater technology, probiotics, novel disease
prevention and control strategies
21. Issues/Gaps Regional Policy Recommendations
Cooperation
among relevant
stakeholders
Strengthen cooperation arrangements of the following:
ASEAN Member States (AMS) and international/regional
organizations such as OIE, FAO, NACA and SEAFDEC
ASEAN Network of Aquatic Animal Health Centres (ANAAHC);
in addition to cooperation arrangements, ANAAHC should
also:
assess the status and find ways on how the network could
be assisted in implementing its activities
identify what centers should be involved in ANAAHC per
country
mobilize all aquatic animal health centers
Public-private cooperation at national levels
Cooperation among shrimp industries in the ASEAN Region
22. Issues/Gaps Regional Policy Recommendations
Capacity building
program
This should also include technology transfer from AMS to
another AMS
Awareness
building
Enhance awareness of farmers and relevant stakeholders
on R&D developments in transboundary diseases
(especially on management and control)
Proceedings of the meeting will be published in December 2016
23. Create a network and/or regional forum for exchanging/ sharing
experiences and knowledge on research and development on EMS/
AHPND and other transboundary diseases
Develop regional policy framework related to aquatic animal health
management including transboundary movement of live aquatic
animals based on national policy frameworks
Accelerate awareness and capacity building programs on biosecurity
and disease detection, monitoring and surveillance, prevention and
control
NEXT STEP: IMMEDIATE ACTIONS
24. Regional Policy Recommendations
Presented to the SEAFDEC Council during its 48th meeting in
Nha Trang, Viet Nam last 4-8 April 2016
