[the epizootological and virological characteristics of a natural hantavirus infection focus in the subtropic zone of the krasnodarsk territory]. | a natural focus of hantavirus infection was detected and examined during the studies conducted in 2000-2002 around the sochi (the western spurs of the great caucasus ridge, which descended to the black sea (the krasnodar territory of russia). at least 4 rodent species, such as microtus majori, a. (s.) ponticus, a. agrarius, a. (s.) ciscaucasicus, were shown to participate in the circulation of hantaviruses. a comparative analysis of the nucleotide sequences of genomic s- and m-segments of hantav ... | 2005 | 16078428 |
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 |
