Abstract

Introduction and objective: Parasites of the genus Theileria are intracellular protozoa that infect the leukocytes and erythrocytes of animals, causing theileriosis. The aim of the study was to examine the presence of Theileria spp. in adult ticks and their offspring in the Lublin region of eastern Poland.

Material and methods: Ticks were collected from vegetation and from wild and domestic animals in Lublin Province, Poland. Engorged females were left in laboratory conditions to lay eggs. Detection of Theileria spp. was performed by amplifying a fragment of the 18S rRNA gene.

Results: Overall, 1,000 ticks collected from vegetation, 50 engorged female ticks from animals, and eggs and larvae from 5 females were tested for Theileria spp. The parasite was not detected in adult ticks or samples isolated from eggs and larvae.

Conclusions: The results did not confirm the prevalence of Theileria in ticks in eastern Poland. The distribution of Theileria in ticks and animals in the Lublin macroregion requires further monitoring.

从波兰东部的植物和动物中收集的蜱中未发现伊氏蜱属。
简介与目的:铁菌属寄生虫是一种细胞内原虫,可感染动物的白细胞和红细胞,引起铁菌病。该研究的目的是检查波兰东部卢布林地区成年蜱及其后代中是否存在他们的蜱虫。材料和方法:在波兰卢布林省的植被和野生动物及家畜身上采集蜱虫。肿胀的雌性被留在实验室条件下产卵。通过扩增18S rRNA基因片段进行检测。结果:共采集植物蜱1000只,动物蜱50只,雌蜱5只,卵和幼虫5只,均未检出伊勒菌,成蜱及卵和幼虫均未检出。结论:调查结果未证实波兰东部蜱虫中存在伊氏杆菌。卢布林大区蜱虫和动物中伊氏菌的分布情况需要进一步监测。
