Popis: Influenza viruses of Orthomyxoviridae family are one of the most important respiratory pathogens of wide variety of mammals and birds. Influenza virus C (ICV), which is a causal agent of mild respiratory disease in humans, and influenza virus D (IDV) have recently been detected in cattle. Moreover, cattle are the reservoir species of the latter one. It seems that both viruses can play a role in the development of the respiratory complex, an economically important cattle disease. In addition, the zoonotic potential of animal isolates cannot be excluded. There had been no information about the occurrence of ICV and IDV in cattle in the Czech Republic (CR) before the beginning our study. So we aimed to examine samples of cattle with respiratory disorders for the presence of these viruses. We obtained 49 nasal swab samples and three samples taken by transtracheal aspiration collected from calves reared in four farms in different districts of the CR. We tested them with real-time RT PCR for ICV and IDV RNA. All the samples were negative for both viruses, although IDV has been detected in six European countries so far and ICV is present throughout the world. For better overview about the occurrence of these viruses in our territory more extensive studies including indirect diagnostics are needed.
