| adler hantavirus, a new genetic variant of tula virus identified in major's pine voles (microtus majori) sampled in southern european russia. | although at least 30 novel hantaviruses have been recently discovered in novel hosts such as shrews, moles and even bats, hantaviruses (family bunyaviridae, genus hantavirus) are primarily known as rodent-borne human pathogens. here we report on identification of a novel hantavirus variant associated with a rodent host, major's pine vole (microtus majori). altogether 36 hantavirus pcr-positive major's pine voles were identified in the krasnodar region of southern european russia within the years ... | 2015 | 25433134 |
| [tula hantavirus in crimea]. | genetic evidence of the tula virus (tulv) in crimea region of russia is presented. based on the reverse transcription pcr and subsequent sequence analysis, a total of 4 rna isolates of the tulv were identified from the tissue samples of the altai voles microtus obscurus captured in the bakhchisaray district of the republic crimea. phylogenetic analysis of the s-, m-, and l-segment sequences of the crimean tulv strains showed that they formed distinct genetic lineage, russia iv, in the tulv varia ... | 2015 | 27192820 |
| [epizootology of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome in the central chernozem region]. | a total of 5149 small mammals belonging to 16 species were collected from the lipetsk, voronezh, and belgorod regions (40 administrative districts) in 2003-2004 and examined by elisa and ifa to detect hantavirus antigen and antibodies in the lung tissues. hantavirus circulation was revealed in 13 species, the highest hantavirus activity being detected in field (apodemus agrarius) and small wood (a. (s) uralensis) mice (dobrava-belgrad virus), bank (clethrionomis glareolus) (puumala virus) and co ... | 2006 | 17087062 |
| [activation of natural tularemia foci of the field-meadow and steppe types on the territory of tula province 1977-1978]. | natural tularemia foci of the meadow and steppe type are extremely stable and become active in those years when the most favourable living conditions for rodents appear. for the first time during the last 30 years a great increase in the number of common voles, accompanied by widely spread epizooty covering the whole territory of the tula region, was observed. house mice, common field mice, harvest mice and black rats were also involved in this epizooty and 235 tularemia patients with all clinic ... | 1982 | 6211008 |
