Ancient origin and genetic segregation of canine circovirus infecting arctic foxes (Vulpes lagopus) in Svalbard and red foxes (Vulpes vulpes) in Northern Norway
Urbani, Lorenza; Tryland, Morten; Ehrich, Dorothee; Fuglei, Eva; Battilani, Mara; Balboni, Andrea (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-08-12)Canine circovirus (CanineCV) is a relatively new viral species, belonging to the family <i>Circoviridae</i>, whose pathogenic role is still uncertain. Since its first description in one domestic dog in 2011 from the USA, several reports have been documenting its distribution worldwide. Recently, CanineCV was also detected in wild animals such as wolves, foxes and badgers. In order to investigate the ... -
A screening for canine distemper virus, canine adenovirus and carnivore protoparvoviruses in Arctic foxes (Vulpes lagopus) and red foxes (Vulpes vulpes) from Arctic and sub-Arctic regions of Norway
Tryland, Morten; Balboni, Andrea; Killengreen, Siw Turid; Mørk, Torill; Nielsen, Ole; Yoccoz, Nigel Gilles; Ims, Rolf Anker; Fuglei, Eva (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-10-26)Canine distemper virus (CDV), canine adenovirus (CAdV) and canine parvovirus type 2 (CPV-2) cause disease in dogs (Canis familiaris). These, or closely related viruses, may also infect wild carnivores. The aim of this study was to investigate exposure to CDV, CAdV and CPV-2 among fox populations in Norway. Arctic foxes (n = 178) from High-Arctic Svalbard were investigated for antibodies against CDV. ... -
Unique genetic features of canine adenovirus type 1 (CAdV-1) infecting red foxes (Vulpes vulpes) in northern Norway and arctic foxes (Vulpes lagopus) in Svalbard
Balboni, Andrea; Tryland, Morten; Mørk, Torill; Killengreen, Siw Turid; Fuglei, Eva; Battilani, Mara (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-03-02)Canine adenovirus type 1 (CAdV-1) is the aetiological agent of infectious canine hepatitis (ICH) in domestic dogs (<i>Canis familiaris</i>). In spite of the widespread use of vaccination, CAdV-1 continues to circulate in the dog population. Although a high number of serological screenings have indicated that CAdV-1 is widespread in fox species, little is known about the potential role of foxes as ...
