In vitro propagation of shrimp viruses IHHNV (Infectious hematopoietic hypodermal necrosis virus)/PstDV1 and MBV (Monodon baculovirus)/PmNV in the primary haemocyte culture was successfully be accomplished in the present study. The haemocytes were maintained in double-strength L15 medium with growth supplements and antibiotics. Cytopathic changes observed in the cells were detachment, slendering of cells, vacuolation, and rounding of the cells. Replication of viruses in the culture was confirmed through the expression of DNA polymerase, polyhedrin and lef 4 of MBV and capsid gene of IHHNV. Ultrathin sections of haemocytes observed through electron microscopy revealed scattered chromatin, virogenic stroma and presence of viruses and occlusion bodies (MBV). The study revealed that primary haemocyte culture could be used as a platform for the propagation of a variety of shrimp viruses.
