Gibel carp (Carassius auratus gibelio), a major aquaculture species in China, has emerged in a seriously epizootic disease caused by Cyprinid herpesvirus 2 (CyHV-2). There are no effective methods to prevent or control this serious disease. Biofloc technology (BFT) can improve water quality, reduce pathogens introduction, enhance cultured species immunity and disease resistance. In this study, a 30-day experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of BFT on innate immune response and disease resistance of gibel carp against CyHV-2 infection. Gibel carp was cultured at different total suspended solid (TSS) concentrations of 10, 300, 600, 800 and 1000 mg L-1, which were named as groups BF0, BF300, BF600, BF800 and BF1000. Results showed that fish in groups BF600/800 had significantly higher weight gain (WG) and specific growth rate (SGR) than them in control group (BF0). The transcriptional levels of seven immune-related genes in BF300/600/800 groups, including myeloid-specific- peroxidase (MPO), keratin 8 (KRT 8), dual specificity phosphatase 1 (DUSP 1), interleukin-11 (IL-11), intelectin (ITLN), purine nucleoside phosphorylase 5α (PNP 5α) and c-type lysozyme (c-lys), were up-regulated significantly compared to BF0 group. Furthermore, cumulative mortality of gibel carp in BF600 group after being challenged with CyHV-2 reduced significantly. In vivo viral replication in kidney demonstrated that CyHV-2 load at 168 h post injection in BF600 group was significantly higher than that in BF0 group. In conclusion, BFT could improve growth, immune response and disease resistance of gibel carp, and the effect was related with TSS concentration. The optimal TSS concentration of 600-800 mg L-1 was recommended in the present study.
