A novel set of microsatellite marker loci linkage-mapped in the house musk shrew, Suncus murinus.
Ten microsatellite DNA loci developed for the white-toothed shrew (Crocidura russula) were tested for PCR amplification and for utility in linkage studies in the house musk shrew, Suncus murinus. Four primer pairs successfully yielded PCR amplicons and showed polymorphism between two mutant strains, BAN-kc,oeb and WZ. Cloning and sequencing of the PCR amplicons of all the four loci confirmed th...

متن کاملThe Asian house shrew Suncus murinus as a reservoir and source of human outbreaks of plague in Madagascar
Identifying key reservoirs for zoonoses is crucial for understanding variation in incidence. Plague re-emerged in Mahajanga, Madagascar in the 1990s but there has been no confirmed case since 1999. Here we combine ecological and genetic data, from during and after the epidemics, with experimental infections to examine the role of the shrew Suncus murinus in the plague epidemiological cycle. The...
متن کاملEndophthalmitis Outbreak Associated with Repackaged Bevacizumab
ruses co-evolved with their animal hosts, such as SEOV with rats and HTNV with striped mice, but when their animal hosts expanded their territory, hantavirus had more chance to infect other susceptible rodents and expanded their animal hosts. Both Asian house shrews and house mice are closely associated with humans by living inside and outside of human houses in China. The Asian house shrew and...
متن کاملNovel Hantavirus Sequences in Shrew, Guinea
To the Editor: Gupta et al. raise important issues regarding molecular profiling as an epidemiologic tool (1). First, since all living organisms are related, the goal of genomic profiling in public health epidemiology is not really to determine “whether such isolates are truly related” (1) (they are), but to define the degree of similarity—or, more specifically, to determine whether isolates ar...
