Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the presence and distribution of Anaplasma ovis and Anaplasma phagocytophilum in small ruminants in Istanbul, Tekirdag, Edirne and Kirklareli provinces in Thrace region of northwestern Turkey during May-September in 2014. A total of 423 blood samples (216 sheep and 207 goats) were collected randomly from small ruminants regardless of the clinical symptoms. Species-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays, targeting the major surface protein 4 (msp4), were employed for identification of A. ovis and A. phagocytophilum and selected products were confirmed via sequencing. A total of 230 small ruminants (54.37%) were found to be infected with A. ovis and/or A. phagocytophilum. The rates of infected animals for A. ovis and A. phagocytophilum were 50.83% (215/423) and 8.51% (36/423) respectively. Coinfection rate in small ruminants was determined as 4.96% (21/423). Sequence diversity rates of 0-0.94% for A. ovis and 0.41-2.49% for A. phagocytophilum have been observed. This is the first detection of A. ovis and A. phagocytophilum in sheep and goats in Thrace region of northwestern Turkey via polymerase chain reaction and sequence characterization. Further researches are needed to determine the vectors, vector-host interactions and genotypic variants that may affect the presence and distribution of Anaplasma species in the region

Özet

Bu çalışma, Türkiye'nin Trakya bölgesindeki küçük ruminantlarda Anaplasma ovis ve Anaplasma phagocytophilum'un varlığı ve dağılımını belirlemek amacı ile Mayıs-Eylül 2014 tarihleri arasında İstanbul, Tekirdağ, Edirne ve Kırklareli illerinde yürütülmüştür. Klinik semptom göstermelerine bakılmaksızın rastgele seçilen küçük ruminantlardan toplam 423 kan örneği (216 koyun ve 207 keçi) toplanmıştır. A. ovis ve A. phagocytophilum türlerinin identifikasyonu için major surface protein 4 (msp4) genini hedef alan tür-spesifik polimeraz zincir reaksiyonu (PZR) kullanılmış olup seçilen ürünler sekanslanarak doğrulanmıştır. Toplam 230 (%54.37) küçük ruminantın A. ovis ve/veya A. phagocytophilum ile enfekte olduğu bulunmuştur. A. ovis ve A. phagocytophilum yönünden pozitif hayvanların yüzdesi sırasıyla %50.83 (215/423) ve %8.51 (36/423) bulunmuştur. Her iki tür için pozitif hayvanların yüzdesi %4.96 (21/423) olarak tespit edilmiştir. Sekans farklılıklıkları A. ovis için 0-0.94% ve A. phagocytophilum için 0.41-2.49% oranlarında izlenmiştir. Bu çalışma, A. ovis ve A. phagocytophilum'un Türkiye'nin Trakya bölgesindeki koyun ve keçilerde varlığı ve dağılımı üzerine polimeraz zincir reaksiyonu ve sekans karakterizasyonu ile yapılan ilk araştırmadır. Bölgedeki Anaplasma türlerinin varlık ve dağılımını etkileyebilecek vektör, vektörkonak ilişkileri ve genotipik varyantlar konusunda yeni araştırmalara ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır
