    Babesia microti (Piroplasmida: Babesiidae) in nymphal Ixodes ricinus (Acari: Ixodidae) in the Czech Republic

  • Original language description

    A total of 350 nymphs of the common tick Ixodes ricinus (Linnaeus, 1758) were collected in an endemic focus of Lyme borreliosis (South Moravia, Czech Republic) and examined for the presence of the protozoan Babesia microti (Franca, 1909) by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), using primers specific for the B. microti gene encoding small subunit rRNA. The assay revealed five positive pools (out of 70 pools examined); the corresponding prevalence rate was about 1.5%. Sequence analysis of the PCR products confirmed their 100% homology with that of B. microti. The study represents the first evidence of B. microti in ixodid ticks in the Czech Republic.

    Babesia microti (Piroplasmida: Babesiidae) v nymfách klíštěte Ixodes ricinus (Acari: Ixodidae) v České republice

  • Czech description

    Celkem 350 nymf klíštěte druhu Ixodes ricinus bylo nasbíráno v oblasti enedemické pro výskyt lymské borreliózy a vyšetřeno na přítomnost prvoka Babesia microti pomocí polymerárové řetězové reakce. Bylo zjištěno 5 pozitivních směsí (ze 70 vyšetřených), prevalence činila 1,5 %. Sekvenční analýza potvrdila 100 % homologii s B. microti. Studie jako první dokumentuje výskyt prvoka B. microti v klíšťatech na území České republiky.
