Author: Zhuang L, Sun Y, Cui XM, Tang F, Hu JG, Wang LY, Cui N, Yang ZD, Huang DD, Zhang XA, Liu W, Cao WC. Journal: Emerg Infect Dis; 2018 May; 24(5):868-71. PubMed ID: 29664718. Abstract: We demonstrate maintenance and transmission of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus by Haemaphysalis longicornis ticks in the larva, nymph, and adult stages with dissemination in salivary gland, midgut, and ovarian tissues. The H. longicornis tick is a competent vector to transmit this virus in both transovarial and transstadial modes.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
