“…This assay would detect, but would not distinguish among, infections by New York virus (from the white-footed mouse), 4 Prospect Hill-like viruses (from arvicoline rodents), 15 El Moro Canyon virus (from the western harvest mouse), 8 Black Creek Canal virus (from the cotton rat), 6 and Bayou virus (from the rice rat). 7 Data were analyzed using SPSS software. 16 Trap success was computed as the number of captures per 100 trap nights, and trap nights were equal to the number of traps set multiplied by the number of nights.…”

“…5,6 Three HPS cases in Louisiana and east Texas have been associated with Bayou virus, whose host appears to be the rice rat (Oryzomys palustris). 7 Rodent trapping and sampling associated with the investigation of numerous HPS cases in the western United States quickly resulted in the accumulation of considerable data concerning the prevalence of hantavirus infection in reservoir populations in this region of the country (Ksiazek TG, unpublished data). Subsequently, additional hantaviruses and hantavirus reservoir species were identified in the western United States, including El Moro Canyon virus in the western harvest mouse (Reithrodontomys megalotis), which has not been associated with human disease.…”

Abstract. Hantavirus activity in 39 National Parks in the eastern and central United States was surveyed by testing 1,815 small mammals of 38 species for antibody reactive to Sin Nombre virus. Antibody-positive rodents were found throughout the area sampled, and in most biotic communities. Antibody was detected in 7% of 647 deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus), 2% of 590 white-footed mice (P. leucopus), 17% of 12 rice rats (Oryzomys palustris), 3% of 31 cotton rats (Sigmodon hispidus), and 33% of 18 western harvest mice (Reithrodontomys megalotis). Antibody was also found in three of six species of voles, and in one of 33 chipmunks (Tamias minimus). Prevalence among Peromyscus was highest in the northeast. Although few cases of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome have been identified from the eastern and central regions, widespread infection in reservoir populations indicates that potential exists for human infection throughout much of the United States.

“…Also note that ANDV, CHOV, and MAPV are principally associated with Oligoryzomys species, BCCV, MULV, and CADV are principally associated with Sigmodon species, and-as indicated previously-BAYV is principally associated with Oryzomys palustris. 7,8,10,14,16,17,28,[41][42][43] The results of the NJ analysis of uncorrected p model distances generated from the alignment of N protein amino acid sequences, the MP analysis of the alignment of N protein gene sequences, and the MP analysis of the alignment of N protein amino acid sequences were essentially the same as the results of the NJ analysis of uncorrected p model distances generated from the alignment of N protein gene sequences.…”

“…The nucleotide sequences of the cytochrome b genes of TK102040 and TK102014, three other Coues' oryzomys (TK93218, TK93244, and TK72660), and 4 marsh oryzomys (Oryzomys palustris-TK91240, TK51628, TK111000, and TK27995) were determined to improve our knowledge of the taxonomical relationship between O. couesi and O. palustris, the principal host of BAYV. 28 Rodents TK93218 and TK93244 were captured at Las Minas in Oaxaca, Mexico, TK72660 was captured in Cameron County, Texas, TK91240 in Galveston County, Texas, TK51628 in Calhoun County, Texas, TK111000 in Brazoria County, Texas, and TK27995 in Okmulgee County, Oklahoma. Mitochondrial DNA was isolated from liver as described previously.…”

Abstract. The primary objective of this study was to extend our knowledge of the geographical distribution, genetic diversity, and natural host associations of the hantaviruses indigenous to North America. Antibody to a hantavirus was found in 5 (20.8%) of 24 Coues' oryzomys (Oryzomys couesi) and none of 41 other rodents captured near the town of Catacamas in eastern Honduras, and a hantavirus was isolated from one of the antibody-positive Coues' oryzomys. Analyses of nucleotide and amino acid sequence data indicated that the viral isolate is a strain of a novel hantaviral species (proposed species name "Catacamas virus") that is phylogenetically most closely related to Bayou virus, a hantaviral species that is principally associated with Oryzomys palustris (marsh oryzomys) in the southeastern United States. Catacamas virus is the first evidence for the occurrence of a hantaviral species in Honduras and the first evidence that a hantaviral species is naturally associated with an Oryzomys species other than O. palustris.

Hokkaido virus (HOKV) is a member of the genus Hantavirus, in the family Bunyaviridae. To investigate HOKV infection in the host Myodes rufocanus, the grey red‐backed vole, 199 animals were captured at Tobetsu (October 2004 and July 2005) and Nakagawa (October 2004) in Hokkaido, Japan, for detection of antibody, antigen, and viral RNA. In the surveys in Tobetsu (2004) and Nakagawa (2004), seropositive animals were detected at a frequency of 6.0% (5/84) and 10.4% (5/48), respectively. No seropositive animals were detected in Tobetsu in 2005. Seroprevalence in males in Tobetsu and Nakagawa in 2004 was 25% (1/4) and 45.5% (5/11), respectively, which was higher than in females, at 5.0% (4/80) and 0% (0/37), respectively (P<0.01). These results suggest that male animals play an important role in the maintenance of HOKV in M. rufocanus. Two females were seronegative but viral RNA‐positive, indicating that these animals had acute infections before antibody was produced. Another five infected animals in Nakagawa were all male and had high levels of antibodies and viral RNA, suggesting that they had persistent infections. Viral RNA copies in organs of infected animals in Nakagawa were quantified by real‐time polymerase chain reaction. Two acutely infected animals had ≥10 times the number of RNA copies in their lungs compared to those of persistently infected animals. In most cases, lungs or spleen had the highest RNA copy number, regardless of infection status.
