Lack of data from wild individuals makes impossible to assess the species condition in terms of genetic structure. Up to date, residual genetic variability of the species is maintained ex-situ in some F1 stocks breed from wild individuals of different geographical origin. |

Status Description |
The percentage of observed Atlantic genotypes is below the threshold value. So, this population would result as Good. However to improve reliability, more genetic markers would be needed, such as those under development in the AQUATRACE FP7 program |

Available data for indicator 1.3.2 are too limited to assess reliably the species condition in terms of genetic structure, since they are based only on the mtDNA analyses of one population (N=35). However, the haplotype diverity index (h= 0.057) is significantly lower than the threshold value, So, this suggest that this population would not result as Good. |

Status Description |
In this subregion, during last decades few mortality outbreaks due to transmissible pathogens were described in wild fish population: one outbreak of Photobacteriosis due to Photobacterium damselae susp. piscicida was observed in 1990 alongside the coasts of Northern Adriatic Sea in eight different species; an outbreak of vibriosis by Vibrio spp. (Listonella (Vibrio) anguillarum, V. harveyi and V. chagassi) was described in Atherina boyeri during summer 2008 alongside the Gulf of Trieste. As far as outbreaks caused by virus, Betanodavirus were detected in ten different species alongside Rimini and Ravenna in 2006 without mortality. The Betanodavirus, the causative agent of the Viral Encephalopathy and Retinopathy (VER), is frequently associated to disease outbreaks in farmed European seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax) in the Mediterranean and more recently also in Gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata). In wild fish populations, betanodavirus has been isolated from different fish species in this subregion, including groupers (Epinephelus spp.), red mullet (Mullus barbatus and M. surmuletus), gilthead seabream, poor cod (Trisopterus minutus capelanus), shi drum (Umbrina cirrosa). The dusky grouper (E. marginatus), an endangered species, is particularly sensitive to betanodavirus infection and few cases have been reported in the southern part of this sub-region. A case of mortality has been further described in 2011 in shi drum in north Adriatic sea.
In fish reared in sea cages, several outbreaks of VER where reported in European seabass and a single case in sharpsnout seabream (Diplodus puntazzo) and gilthead seabream. The trend of betanodavirosis seems to be stable, however, global warming and introductions of new fish species in the Mediterranean, could affect its diffusion and impact in the next future.
Photobacterium damselae susp. Piscicida was further isolated during few outbreaks by sharpsnout seabream and European seabass; some cases of vibriosis by Listonella (Vibrio) anguillarum were reported in European seabass.
Outbreaks of systemic mycobacteriosis due to Mycobacterium marinum have been not reported in fish farmed in sea cages. However some cases are reported elsewhere in the Mediterranean, suggesting the monitoring of this pathogen, which further represents a zoonotic agent.
Concerning parasitosis, Microcotylid Monogenean infections by Sparicotyle crysophrii were observed in gilthead seabream showing a stable trend; Enteromyxosis due to Enteromyxum leei was observed in gilthead seabream and sharpsnout seabream, with high mortality outbreaks in the second species.
No significant mortality is reported in shellfish production areas due to transmissible pathogens, with a stable trend in the last few years. Bonamia ostrae and B. exitiosa are both found in farmed and wild flat oyster (Ostrea edulis) in the Adriatic subregion, with prevalence below 1% and not associated with mortality. Marteilia refringens is found in farmed and wild flat oyster (Ostrea edulis) and in Mediterranean mussel (Mytilus galloprovincialis) in the Adriatic subregion, with prevalence below 1% and usually not associated with mortality. However wild oysters with M. refrigens could be more subjected to mortality when used for aquaculture.
Perkinsus olseni is a common finding of Manila clam T. philippinarum and usually not associated to mortality. It is endemic in the northern Adriatic lagoons with prevalence up to 50-60%. However, cases of mortality have been reported in those area characterized by high prevalence (up to 90%) and overfishing, which represents a major issue in the next future. P. olseni is further reported in other species such as T. decussata, Callista chione, Chamelea gallina with prevalence below 1%.
Ostreid herpes virus 01 microvar is an emerging pathogen found in farmed and wild flat oyster. Actually no mortality has been reported, but it would seem to be more pathogenic in lagoons during critical seasons. |
