ABSTRACT
Ticks and tick-borne diseases pose a significant threat to public health. In this study, we aimed to determine the tick species distribution and pathogens carried by ticks in Yanbian, China. A total of 2673 questing ticks were collected from eight counties and cities in Yanbian and were morphologically identified. The presence of Candidatus Rickettsia tarasevichiae (CRT), spotted fever group Rickettsia (SFGR), severe fever thrombocytopenia syndrome virus (SFTSV), Theileria, and other pathogens was confirmed using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and real-time quantitative PCR assays, followed by phylogenetic and genotypic analyses. According to the morphological identification, the tick species in Yanbian consisted of Haemaphysalis longicornis, Ixodes persulcatus, Dermacentor silvarum, H. japonica, and H. concinna. In H. longicornis, CRT, SFGR, SFTSV and Theileria orientalis were detected, while CRT, SFGR, and SFTSV were detected in I. persulcatus, H. japonica, and D. silvarum. Only SFTSV was detected in H. concinna. Mixed infection with CRT and SFTSV was observed in I. persulcatus and H. japonica. The gene sequences of all tested pathogens exhibited 95.7%-100% identity with the corresponding sequences deposited in GenBank. Phylogenetic analysis showed that different SFGR and SFTSV genotypes were closely related to the Korean strains. This study is the first to describe the genetic diversity of SFGR Candidatus Rickettsia longicornii in H. longicornis in Yanbian, China, using the ompA, ompB, sca4, and rrs genes. These results provide epidemiological data to support the prevention and control of ticks and tick-borne diseases in the border areas of China, North Korea, and Russia.
Title Enquête sur les espèces de tiques et détection moléculaire de certains agents pathogènes transmis par les tiques à Yanbian, en Chine. Abstract Les tiques et les maladies transmises par les tiques constituent une menace importante pour la santé publique. Dans cette étude, nous avons cherché à déterminer la distribution des espèces et les agents pathogènes portés par les tiques à Yanbian, en Chine. Un total de 2 673 tiques errantes ont été collectées dans huit comtés et villes de Yanbian et identifiées morphologiquement. La présence de Candidatus Rickettsia tarasevichiae (CRT), de Rickettsia du groupe de la fièvre boutonneuse (SFGR), du virus du syndrome de la fièvre thrombocytopénique sévère (SFTSV), de Theileria et d'autres agents pathogènes a été confirmée à l'aide d'une réaction en chaîne par polymérase (PCR) et de PCR quantitative en temps réel, suivies par des analyses phylogénétiques et génotypiques. Selon leur identification morphologique, les espèces de tiques à Yanbian se composaient de Haemaphysalis longicornis, Ixodes persulcatus, Dermacentor silvarum, H. japonica et H. concinna. Chez H. longicornis, CRT, SFGR, SFTSV et Theileria orientalis ont été détectés, tandis que CRT, SFGR et SFTSV ont été détectés chez I. persulcatus, H. japonica et D. silvarum. Seul le SFTSV a été détecté chez H. concinna. Une infection mixte par CRT et SFTSV a été observée chez I. persulcatus et H. japonica. Les séquences des gènes de tous les agents pathogènes testés présentaient une identité de 95,7 % à 100 % avec les séquences correspondantes déposées dans GenBank. L'analyse phylogénétique a montré que différents génotypes SFGR et SFTSV étaient étroitement liés aux souches coréennes. Cette étude est la première à décrire la diversité génétique de SFGR Candidatus Rickettsia longicornii chez H. longicornis à Yanbian, en Chine, en utilisant les gènes ompA, ompB, sca4 et rrs. Ces résultats fournissent des données épidémiologiques pour soutenir la prévention et le contrôle des tiques et des maladies transmises par les tiques dans les zones frontalières de la Chine, de la Corée du Nord et de la Russie.
