Serum samples of 749 sheep from 75 sheep flocks in Norway, i.e. 361 lambs (6 to 7 months old) and 388 adults (>1.5 year), were analysed for antibodies to Ehrlichia equi. Ten animals from each flock were examined. Seropositive animals were found along the coast of southern Norway from Vestfold to Sør-Trøndelag (as far north as 63°38''N). Seropositive sheep were not found in southeast, east or northern Norway. Thirty-two flocks were seropositive, although tick-borne fever had only been diagnosed earlier in half of these. In 78% of the seropositive flocks, more than 80% of the sheep were seropositive. A total of 35.7 % and 36.3 % of lambs and adults were found seropositive, respectively. However, the overall seroprevalence among animals that had been grazing on Ixodes pastures were 0.80 for the lambs and 0.84 for the adults. Mean antibody titres (± SD) (log10) in seropositive lambs and adults were 2.59 (± 0.449) and 2.70 (± 0.481), respectively. No significant differences in either seroprevalence or mean antibody titre between sheep of different ages were obtained in this study. Based on antibodies 94% of sheep flocks on Ixodes pastures were infected with a granulocytic Ehrlichia infection. The association between seropositive flocks and Ixodes infested pasture shows a very high degree of agreement (p < 0.00001). The present study indicates that granulocytic Ehrlichia infection in sheep is underdiagnosed in Norway. 相似文献

The effects on growth, asexual and sexual reproduction of different Aphanomyces species by the new fungicide ampropylfos ((RS)-1-aminopropylphosphonic acid) were tested using highly synchronized cultures. Ampropylfos reduced mycelial growth in Aphanomyces astaci, A. euteiches and A. stellatus. The fungicide was found to reduce zoospore numbers in all Aphanomyces species tested except A. euteiches. In one species, A. stellatus, zoospore production was inhibited at much lower fungicide concentrations than in the other species tested. In the pea pathogen A. euteiches, ampropylfos reduced the number of oospores, whereas the fungicide had little effect on asexual reproduction. 相似文献

Four groups of lambs aged 1 week, 4 weeks, 1/2 year and 1 year old respectively were inoculated with Ehrlichia phagocytophila infected blood. Clinical signs, temperature reactions, haematological changes and parasitaemia were more moderate in lambs inoculated with E. phagocytophila at the age of 1 week than those recorded in the older animals. The clinical response to tick-borne fever (TBF) appears to be more severe with increasing age of the lambs. The lymphocyte reactivity to mitogens was reduced in the TBF infected lambs, and was most pronounced in lambs in the 3 older age groups. 相似文献

Background
Anaplasma phagocytophilum infection in domestic ruminants is widespread in the coastal areas of southern Norway. The bacteria may persist in mammalian hosts. Several genetic variants of A. phagocytophilum exist. In the present study, we investigate whether superinfection occurs in the acute and persistent phase of the infection.Methods
Five-month-old lambs of the Norwegian Dala breed were experimentally infected with two 16S rRNA gene variants of A. phagocytophilum, i.e. A. phagocytophilum variant 1 (GenBank accession number ) and variant 2 (GenBank acc. no. M73220). Eighteen lambs were used, two lambs in each group. Eight groups were experimentally inoculated with either variant 1 or 2 on day 0. Six of these groups were then challenged with the other variant on either days 7, 42 or 84, respectively. One group was left uninfected. The occurrence of A. phagocytophilum in blood samples was determined using semi-nested PCR analysis and gene sequencing. Specific antibodies were measured by an indirect immunofluorescence antibody assay (IFA). AF336220Results
A. phagocytophilum variant 1 and 2 differed significantly with regards to clinical reaction and cross-immunity in infected lambs. Both variants were found in the blood after challenge. However, variant 1 was detected most frequently.Conclusion
The present experiment indicates that superinfection of different genotypes occurs during the acute as well as the persistent phase of an A. phagocytophilum infection, even in lambs protected against the challenged infection. 相似文献40.
Two cases of suspected Lyme borreliosis in lambs are described. The clinical signs observed resemble those described for Lyme borreliosis in dogs and horses. The lambs were approximately six months old and came from two different flocks in a district heavily infested with Ixodes ricinus ticks. The lambs had pronounced lameness in one leg, generally bad condition and poor appetite. They had high serum levels of IgG antibodies to Borrelia burgdorferi when tested in an ELISA. The other lambs in the flocks were negative to B burgdorferi antibodies. Attempts were made to isolate spirochaetes from one of the lambs, but were unsuccessful. 相似文献
