| molecular identification of sarcocystis grueneri in wild korean water deer (hydropotes inermis argyropus). | the cysts of sarcocystis grueneri were detected and characterized from the cardiac muscles of the korean water deer (hydropotes inermis argyropus). of the 38 heart muscle samples examined by light microscopy, 10 were found infected with the cysts of sarcocystis sp. the cysts appeared oval to spherical shape and measured 110-380 μm in length and 90-170 μm in width. a phylogenetic tree of the 18s rrna sequences (1.5 kb) revealed a close relationship of the infected cysts to genus sarcocystis. the ... | 2018 | 29742867 |
| detection of bovine coronavirus in nasal swab of non-captive wild water deer, korea. | bovine coronavirus (bcov) is a causative agent of respiratory and enteric diseases in cattle and calves. bcov infection was also evident in captive wild ruminants. recently, water deer are recognized as the most common wildlife to approach farmhouses and livestock barns in korea. therefore, we investigated 77 nasal swab samples from non-captive wild water deer (hydropotes inermis) between november 2016 and september 2017 and identified three samples positive for coronavirus, indicating potential ... | 2018 | 29508550 |
| application of habitat evaluation procedure with quantifying the eco-corridor in the process of environmental impact assessment. | in contrast to other fields, environmental protection (e.g., habitat protection) often fails to include quantitative evaluation as part of the existing environmental impact assessment (eia) process, and therefore the eia is often a poor forecasting tool, which makes selecting a reasonable plan of action difficult. in this study, we used the habitat evaluation procedure (hep) to quantify the long-term effects of a road construction project on an ecosystem. the water deer (hydropotes inermis) was ... | 2019 | 31018499 |
| variation in the prion protein gene (prnp) sequence of wild deer in great britain and mainland europe. | susceptibility to prion diseases is largely determined by the sequence of the prion protein gene (prnp), which encodes the prion protein (prp). the recent emergence of chronic wasting disease (cwd) in europe has highlighted the need to investigate prnp gene diversity in european deer species, to better predict their susceptibility to cwd. here we report a large genetic survey of six british deer species, including red (cervus elaphus), sika (cervus nippon), roe (capreolus capreolus), fallow (dam ... | 2019 | 31366372 |
| novel variants of the newly emerged anaplasma capra from korean water deer (hydropotes inermis argyropus) in south korea. | anaplasma spp. are tick-borne gram-negative obligate intracellular bacteria that infect humans and a wide range of animals. anaplasma capra has emerged as a human pathogen; however, little is known about the occurrence and genetic identity of this agent in wildlife. the present study aimed to determine the infection rate and genetic profile of this pathogen in wild animals in the republic of korea. | 2019 | 31345253 |
| identification of zoonotic tick-borne pathogens from korean water deer (hydropotes inermis argyropus). | korean water deer (hydropotes inermis argyropus) are widespread in the republic of korea (rok). mostly, korean water deer are essential hosts for maintaining ticks and tick-borne diseases (tbds). here, we investigated the prevalence of tick-borne pathogens (tbps) among rescued korean water deer. anaplasma phagocytophilum (21.4%, 6/28), anaplasma capra (14.3%, 4/28), babesia capreoli (3.6%, 1/28), and coxiella burnetii (3.6%, 1/28) were detected, but borrelia burgdorferi, ehrlichia, rickettsia, a ... | 2020 | 32598238 |
| species identification of red deer (cervus elaphus), roe deer (capreolus capreolus), and water deer (hydropotes inermis) using capillary electrophoresis-based multiplex pcr. | to provide consumers correct information on meat species, specific and sensitive detection methods are needed. thus, we developed a capillary electrophoresis-based multiplex pcr assay to simultaneously detect red deer (cervus elaphus), roe deer (capreolus capreolus), and water deer (hydropotes inermis). specific primer sets for these three species were newly designed. each primer set only amplified target species without any reactivity against non-target species. to identify multiple targets in ... | 2020 | 32718080 |
| haematological and serum biochemical reference values in chinese water deer (hydropotes inermis): a preliminary study. | a selection of haematological and serum biochemical profile was first presented from the 81 samples of chinese water deer (hydropotes inermis). the deer health assessment database was initially established, especially in relation to determining potential effects associated with diseases diagnosis. | 2020 | 33081761 |
| phylogenetic analysis of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus in korean water deer (hydropotes inermis argyropus) in the republic of korea. | severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (sfts) is an emerging zoonotic tick-borne disease caused by sfts virus, which circulates among ticks and their host animals, including wildlife. however, few studies have examined sfts virus infection in wildlife present in the republic of korea (rok). we evaluated sfts virus infection in tissue samples from korean water deer (hydropotes inermis argyropus), one of the most common wild ungulates in rok. in this study, we evaluated tissue samples of 129 ... | 2020 | 31787559 |
