We detected West Nile virus (WNV) nucleic acid in crocodiles (Crocodylus niloticus) in Zambia. Phylogenetically, the virus belonged to lineage 1a, which is predominant in the Northern Hemisphere. These data provide evidence that WNV is circulating in crocodiles in Africa and increases the risk for animal and human transmission.

赞比亚养殖鳄鱼中的西尼罗河病毒,2019年

我们在赞比亚的鳄鱼(Crocodylus niloticus)中检测到西尼罗河病毒(WNV)核酸。在系统发育上,该病毒属于谱系1a,该谱系在北半球占主导地位。这些数据提供了证据,表明WNV在非洲的鳄鱼中传播,并增加了动物和人类传播的风险。
