“…However, the highest prevalence was found in fieldfares, common redstarts, and brambling birds. This might be explained by frequent contact with infected ticks rather than susceptibility to infection [16]. Rodents are major maintenance and reservoir hosts of TBEV.…”

Detection of West Nile virus and tick-borne encephalitis virus in birds in Slovakia, using a universal primer set

West Nile virus (WNV) is a mosquito-borne neurotropic pathogen that presents a major public health concern. Information on WNV prevalence and circulation in Slovakia is insufficient. Oral and cloacal swabs and bird brain samples were tested for flavivirus RNA by RT-PCR using newly designed generic primers. The species designation was confirmed by sequencing. WNV was detected in swab and brain samples, whereas one brain sample was positive for tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV). The WNV sequences clustered with lineages 1 and 2. These results confirm the circulation of WNV in birds in Slovakia and emphasize the risk of infection of humans and horses.

“…The main amplifying hosts for ticks are thought to be small rodents (Süss, 2011). However, ixodid ticks in addition takes blood meals from birds, some of which are migratory and therefore might spread the infected tick population further to new territories across geographical barriers, creating new foci of infection (Hasle, 2013;Hasle et al, 2009;Jaenson et al, 2012;Mikryukova et al, 2014;Waldenström et al, 2007). Latvia has been among the countries with the highest rates of TBE cases for many years (Kunze, 2013).…”

First detection of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus in the tick species Haemaphysalis concinna in Shandong Province, China

The aim of this study was to detect severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus (SFTSV) infection using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification in adult Haemaphysalis concinna ticks. A total of 72 adult H. concinna ticks were obtained from 35 goats, three adult H. concinna ticks (4.17 %) collected from two goats were found to be infected with SFTSV via PCR assay. Sequence analysis showed that the partial segment M glycoprotein gene of SFTSV was about 500 bases long by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification and that the PCR products from the samples had an identical sequence (KP714259). With regard to the phylogenetic analysis, the Nei-Gojobri (Kimura 2-parameter) method was used to construct the phylogenetic trees. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that the obtained sequence closely resembled SFTSV strain from Zhejiang Province (KC189856) and belonged to the same clade. The similarity of these strains was up to 96.62 % (only differing by 17 bases). In addition, phylogenetic analysis also indicated that the sequence obtained from adult H. concinna ticks was most closely related to the sequence isolated from Haemaphysalis longicornis (KF781498) with 97.22 % similarity (differing only by 4 bases) and belonged to the same clade.
