Abstract
Northern pygmy mice from 2 localities in East Central Texas, USA, had proliferative epidermal lesions on the tail and feet. Electron microscopy of lesion tissue revealed poxvirus. Phylogenetic analyses indicated the virus differed 35% from its closest relatives, the Chordopoxvirinae. Future research is needed to determine whether this virus could affect human health.
摘要
来自美国中东部得克萨斯州 2 个地区的北方小囊鼠的尾巴和脚部出现增生性表皮损伤。病变组织的电子显微镜检查显示为痘病毒。系统发育分析表明，该病毒与其最接近的亲缘病毒——痘病毒科，存在 35%的差异。需要进一步研究来确定这种病毒是否会影响人类健康。
