Mortality often appears without prior clinical signs typically shortly prior to slaughter. We recently reported the finding and the complete genomic sequence of a novel piscine reovirus PRV which is associated with another cardiac disease in Atlantic salmon heart and skeletal muscle inflammation HSMI . In the present work we have studied whether PRV or other infectious agents may be involved in the etiology of CMS. Results Using high throughput sequencing on heart samples from natural outbreaks of CMS and from fish experimentally challenged with material from fish diagnosed with CMS a high number of sequence reads identical to the rRV genome were identified. In addition a sequence contig from a novel totivirus could also be constructed. Using RT-qrCR levels of rRV in tissue samples were quantified and the totivirus was detected in all samples tested from CMS fish but not in controls. n situ hybridization supported this pattern indicating a possible association between CMS and the novel piscine totivirus. Conclusions Although causality for CMS in Atlantic salmon could not be proven for either of the two viruses our results are compatible with a hypothesis where in the experimental challenge studied rRV behaves as an opportunist whereas the totivirus might be more directly linked with
