Here, we present the first detected cases of bluetongue virus (BTV) in native cattle from Poland. The virus was found in animals located near the Polish-Belarusian and Polish-Lithuanian borders. The positive animals were detected through an official epidemiological surveillance program. A combination of type-specific real-time RT-PCR and phylogenetic tests revealed the presence of BTV serotype 14 (BTV-14). This serotype is highly homologous to the vaccine strain and BTV-14 present in Russia, Lithuania, and Spain (from an animal imported from Lithuania). The most probable route of virus introduction to Poland was transmission through midges. All of the cases were subclinical.
在此,我们报告在波兰本地牛群中首次检测到蓝舌病病毒(BTV)的病例。该病毒在位于波兰与白俄罗斯及波兰与立陶宛边境附近的动物身上被发现。通过官方流行病学监测计划检测到了这些呈阳性的动物。特异性实时逆转录聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR)和系统发育测试相结合的方法显示存在BTV血清型14(BTV-14)。该血清型与疫苗株以及俄罗斯、立陶宛和西班牙(从立陶宛进口的动物身上)存在的BTV-14高度同源。病毒传入波兰最可能的途径是通过蠓传播。所有病例均为亚临床症状。
