bluetongue virus serotype 1 in wild ruminants, france, 2008-10.the persistence of bluetongue virus serotype 1 (btv-1) circulation was evaluated in red deer (cervus elaphus), roe deer (capreolus capreolus), mouflons (ovis ammon), and pyrenean chamois (rupicapra pyrenaica pyrenaica) sampled during two hunting seasons between september 2008 and february 2010 in the east pyrenean mountains, france. the prevalence of btv antibody in red deer was high and not significantly different between the two hunting seasons (50.9% and 49.6%, respectively). the prevalence o ...201223060507
the role of wildlife in bluetongue virus maintenance in europe: lessons learned after the natural infection in spain.bluetongue (bt) is a re-emergent vector-borne viral disease of domestic and wild ruminants caused by bluetongue virus (btv), a member of the genus orbivirus. a complex multi-host, multi-vector and multi-pathogen (26 serotypes) transmission and maintenance network has recently emerged in europe, and wild ruminants are regarded as an important node in this network. this review analyses the reservoir role of wild ruminants in europe, identifying gaps in knowledge and proposing actions. wild ruminan ...201424394295
role of wild ruminants in the epidemiology of bluetongue virus serotypes 1, 4 and 8 in spain.abstract: although the importance of wild ruminants as potential reservoirs of bluetongue virus (btv) has been suggested, the role played by these species in the epidemiology of bt in europe is still unclear. we carried out a serologic and virologic survey to assess the role of wild ruminants in the transmission and maintenance of btv in andalusia (southern spain) between 2006 and 2010. a total of 473 out of 1339 (35.3%) wild ruminants analyzed showed antibodies against btv by both elisa and ser ...201121781340
bluetongue in europe and the role of wildlife in the epidemiology of disease.the article reviews a current bluetongue (bt) epidemiological situation in europe, bt restricted zones and the role of wild ungulates as a reservoir for bluetongue virus (btv) and its transmission. bt has been eradicated from central and northern europe, however it is still circulating in some regions of southern and south-eastern europe. according to the recent information of the directoriate general for health and consumer affairs (dg sanco) disease caused by btv1 was spreading at the beginnin ...201526172200
exposure of wildlife to the schmallenberg virus in france (2011-2014): higher, faster, stronger (than bluetongue)!the schmallenberg virus (sbv) has recently emerged in europe, causing losses to the domestic livestock. a retrospective analysis of serodata was conducted in france for estimating seroprevalence of sbv among six wildlife species from 2011-2012 to 2013-2014, that is during the three vector seasons after the emergence of the sbv in france. our objective was to quantify the exposure of wildlife to sbv and the potential protective effect of elevation such as previously observed for bluetongue. we al ...201725958882
molecular and serological survey of selected viruses in free-ranging wild ruminants in iran.a molecular and serological survey of selected viruses in free-ranging wild ruminants was conducted in 13 different districts in iran. samples were collected from 64 small wild ruminants belonging to four different species including 25 mouflon (ovis orientalis), 22 wild goat (capra aegagrus), nine indian gazelle (gazella bennettii) and eight goitered gazelle (gazella subgutturosa) during the national survey for wildlife diseases in iran. serum samples were evaluated using serologic antibody test ...201627997620
