We report fatal tularemia in stranded beluga whales in Cook Inlet, Alaska, USA. Francisella tularensis was detected by nanopore metagenomics, confirmed by quantitative PCR and immunohistochemistry, and characterized as F. tularensis subspecies holarctica by multilocus sequence typing. Our findings should be considered when assessing biosecurity and marine mammal health in the North Pacific.
我们报告了美国阿拉斯加库克湾搁浅白鲸身上发生的致命兔热病。通过纳米孔宏基因组学检测到土拉弗朗西斯菌，经定量PCR和免疫组织化学确认，并通过多位点序列分型鉴定为全北区土拉弗朗西斯菌亚种。在评估北太平洋生物安全和海洋哺乳动物健康时，应考虑我们的研究结果。
