HANTAVIRUS SEEWIS AND RESERVOIR SPECIES IN SIBERIA

Abstract

Genetic evidence of shrew-borne hantavirus in Russia is presented here. Impressive distribution of a hantavirus Seewis (SWSV), previously discovered in the Eurasian common shrew from Switzerland, was demonstrated in Siberia among closely related shrew species: Sorex araneus, S. tundrensis and. S. daphaenodon. SWSV circulation was shown in Altai Republic, Krasnoyarsk Krai, Kemerovo and. Novosibirsk regions, surburbs of Novosibirsk and Irkutsk Cities.
