Native and introduced squirrels in Italy host different Cryptosporidium spp.

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The present study was undertaken to describe Clyptosporidiuin spp. infection in tree squirrels from 17 locations in Northern Italy. A total of 357 squirrels were examined, including species native to Europe (Sciurus vulgaris, n=123), and species introduced from North America (Sciurus carolinensis, 11=162) and Southeast. Asia (Callosciurus erwhraeus, n = 72). Faecal samples of all squirrels were examined for the presence of Coposporichunt infection by microscopy (flotation method) and PCR/sequence analysis of the Cryptosporidium 18S rRNA, actin, and gp60 genes. Despite the overlapping ranges of native and introduced tree squirrel species in the study area, they host different Cryptosporidium spp..Sciurus vulgaris were exclusively infected with Cryptosporidium ferret genotype (n=13) belonging to three novel gp60 subtypes, VIIIb VIIId. Sciurus carolinensis hosted C. ubiquitum subtype XIIh (n = 2), Crvtosporidium skunk genotype subtype XVIa (n=3), and chipmunk genotype I subtype XIVa (n=1). Cryptosporidium chipmunk genotype I subtype XIVa was also found in two C. erythraeus. Comparing data from this and previous studies, we propose that Coptosporidium skunk genotype and possibly C. ubiquitum subtype Xllb were introduced to Europe with eastern grey squirrels. Coposporidium chipmunk genotype I and ferret genotype were associated with high intensity infections, but there was no association with diarrhoea.(C) 2017 Elsevier GmbII. All rights reserved.
