Replication of CEV in gill explant cultures and in primary fin cultures of various carp strains. Cultures were obtained from koi (Koi) and common carp from following strains: Amur wild carp (AS), Ropsha (Rop) Prerov (PS). Cultures were infected with CEV from the carp strain for 48 h at 15 or 25 °C. The CEV was re-isolated from KSD affected carp. As a surrogate for virus replication, the expression of mRNA encoding the viral core protein P4a (CEV P4a mRNA levels) is shown as mean (+SD) copy number of the P4a gene normalised against 100 000 copies of the carp 40S ribosomal protein S11 from n = 3 cultures.
