Usutu virus (USUV) is a mosquito-borne flavivirus that emerged 2001 in Austria and caused deaths in wild birds. In Germany, 70,378 female mosquitoes were captured in 2009 and 2010 and assayed for USUV. Virus was isolated in cell culture from one pool of Culex pipiens pipiens mosquitoes trapped exclusively in August 2010 in Weinheim, Germany. Subsequent phylogenetic analysis demonstrated a close relationship between the isolated USUV strain from Germany and a USUV strain from Austria, which was detected in a dead blackbird in 2004.
乌苏图病毒(USUV)是一种通过蚊子传播的黄病毒,于 2001 年在奥地利出现,并导致野生鸟类死亡。在德国,2009 年和 2010 年共捕获了 70378 只雌性蚊子,并对其进行了 USUV 检测。从 2010 年 8 月仅在德国魏因海姆捕获的库蚊蚊池中分离出了病毒。随后的系统发育分析表明,从德国分离出的 USUV 株与 2004 年在一只死黑鸟中检测到的奥地利 USUV 株密切相关。
