Abstract

Arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) are a taxonomically varied group of viruses that affect the health of many avian species, including the ruffed grouse (Bonasa umbellus), a popular upland game bird whose numbers are in decline in portions of its range. Hunter-harvested ruffed grouse tissue samples were tested for arboviruses during the 2018-2022 hunting seasons in Michigan, Minnesota, and Wisconsin, USA. A low percentage of harvested ruffed grouse were infected with West Nile virus (8/1892; 0.4%), eastern equine encephalitis virus (18/1892; 1.0%), and Highlands J virus (4/1892; 0.2%), and approximately half (16/30) of those infected had histologic cardiac lesions consistent with arboviral infection. Some ruffed grouse may be adversely affected following infection with these viruses, highlighting the need for increased awareness and continued surveillance, particularly in the face of additional stressors such as climate change, which may alter virus-vector-host dynamics, host susceptibility to arbovirus infections, and geographical distributions.

美国中西部地区松鸡(Bonasa umbellus)人畜共患虫媒病毒检测
节肢动物传播的病毒(虫虫病毒)是一组在分类学上变化多样的病毒,影响许多鸟类的健康,包括松鸡(Bonasa umbellus),一种受欢迎的高地猎禽,其数量在其活动范围的部分地区正在下降。在2018-2022年美国密歇根州、明尼苏达州和威斯康星州的狩猎季节,对狩猎收获的松鸡组织样本进行了虫媒病毒检测。收获的松鸡感染西尼罗病毒的比例很低(8/1892;0.4%),东部马脑炎病毒(18/1892;1.0%),高原J型病毒(4/1892;0.2%),大约一半(16/30)的感染者有与虫媒病毒感染一致的心脏组织学病变。一些松鸡在感染这些病毒后可能会受到不利影响,这突出了提高认识和持续监测的必要性,特别是在面临气候变化等额外压力因素的情况下,气候变化可能会改变病毒-媒介-宿主动态、宿主对虫媒病毒感染的易感性和地理分布。

期刊介绍: Vector-Borne and Zoonotic Diseases is an authoritative, peer-reviewed journal providing basic and applied research on diseases transmitted to humans by invertebrate vectors or non-human vertebrates. The Journal examines geographic, seasonal, and other risk factors that influence the transmission, diagnosis, management, and prevention of this group of infectious diseases, and identifies global trends that have the potential to result in major epidemics. Vector-Borne and Zoonotic Diseases coverage includes: -Ecology -Entomology -Epidemiology -Infectious diseases -Microbiology -Parasitology -Pathology -Public health -Tropical medicine -Wildlife biology -Bacterial, rickettsial, viral, and parasitic zoonoses
