AB  - Dirofilaria immitis and D. repens are the two most widespread and important species
of mosquito-borne nematodes, posing a significant threat to veterinary health and particularly
affecting canines and felines. While D. immitis causes cardiopulmonary dirofilariasis, D. repens causes
subcutaneous infections in dogs and other carnivores. Despite the extensive knowledge on these
parasites, little is known about their natural vectors in Serbia. The parasite Setaria tundra, known to
infect deer, has not yet been detected in Serbia but has been documented in neighboring countries.
Thus, the aim of this study was to (i) further map out Dirofilaria sp. hotspots in the Vojvodina
Province and detect S. tundra for the first time, (ii) detect positive mosquito species that can provide
insights into how the nematodes spread in Serbia, and (iii) analyze the blood-fed female mosquitoes
of species found to be infected, in order to identify the potential source of parasite infection. A total of
2902 female mosquitoes were collected across 73 locations during 2021 and 2022. Molecular biology
methods, based on conventional PCR, were used to analyze non-blood-fed (2521 specimens) and
blood-fed (381 specimens) female mosquitos, in order to detect filarial nematode presence and identify
blood-meal sources, respectively. When the parasite genome was detected, the amplicon (cox1 gene,
650 bp fragment) was sent for Sanger sequencing, further confirming the presence of nematodes and
species assignation. D. immitis was detected in three Culex pipiens mosquitoes collected in Zrenjanin
(August 2021) and Glogonj and Svetozar Miletić (both in July 2021). Additionally, Setaria tundra was
detected in Aedes vexans collected in Iđoš (mid-August 2021) and Aedes caspius, which was collected in Mali Iđoš (end of July 2021). This work identifies two new locations where D. immitis occurs
in Vojvodina, and is the first report of S. tundra in Serbian territory. Blood-meal analysis provided
insights into the preferences of mosquitoes that were positive for Dirofilaria sp. and S. tundra.

Од четири врсте Trichinella присутне у Европи (T. spiralis, T. britovi, T. nativa и
T. pseudospiralis), у Србији је присуство Т. spiralis и Т. britovi потврђено код
дивљих месоједа. Иако су статус и трендови популација дивљих карнивора у
Србији стабилни, енормна експанзија популације шакала (Canis aureus) током

AB  - Trichinellosis is a worldwide zoonosis acquired by consuming raw or improperly
cooked meat or meat-derived products from wild and domestic animals infected with
larvae of nematode worms of the genus Trichinella. Wild carnivores have major
epidemiological role in the sylvatic cycle in Europe, mostly spreading Trichinella spp.
within animals through carnivorous activities and by their scavenger behaviour.
From four Trichinella species present in Europe (namely T. spiralis, T. britovi, T.
nativa and T. pseudospiralis), in Serbia the presence of T. spiralis and T. britovi is
confirmed in wild carnivores. Although the status and trends of the populations of
wild carnivores in Serbia are stable, enormous expansion of Golden jackal (Canis
aureus) population during last 40 years has brought new challenge in the control of
Trichinella spp.
The aim of our research was to access the prevalence of Trichinella spp. in population
of wild carnivores (Golden jackal (Canis aureus), fox (Vulpes vulpes), wild cat (Felis
silvestris) and badger (Meles meles) in three districts in Serbia (Braničevski, Sremski
and City of Belgrade) and to identify wild carnivore species taking part of the natural
transmission cycle of Trichinella spp. in Serbia.
A total of 122 tongue muscle tissue samples of animals hunted down during 2022 and
2023 were examined using artificial digestion method. We tested 67 samples from
jackal, 43 from foxes, 10 from badgers i 2 from wild cats. The results showed that 26
(21.14 %) were positive for the presence of Trichinella spp. larvae, among them 18
(69.23 %) jackals, 7 (26.92 %) foxes, one (3.85 %) wild cat, while none was positive
from badgers.
Jackals, foxes and wild cats are involved in Trichinella spp. transmission cycle.
Further Trichinella species typing is necessary to better understand modes of
transmission and how to prevent spreading from wild to domestic animals.

године, у намери да се спрече циклични таласи појављивања куге говеда
почетком 18. века у Европи. Три века касније сведоци смо да инфективне
болести и у оквиру њих зоонозе, не само да не могу да се искорене у
регионима где се појављују ензоотски већ и да њихово ширење представља
реалну претњу и за удаљене регионе света. Посебан сегмент науке о заразним
болестима чини група зооноза које се преносе векторима. Ради се о бројним
инфективним болестима животиња и људи, чији се узрочници преносе
инсектима и артроподама при чему се у неким случајевима, вектори појављују
као прави домаћини и резервоари изазивача зооноза. До пре две деценије
појава грознице Западног Нила (West Nile fever) у регионима света где се ова
зооноза појаљивала ензоотски и ендемски (на пример Афрички континент),
није заокупљала пажњу епизоотиолога и епидемиолога. Међутим, ова
заразна болест је у протеклих двадесетак година у нашем региону изазвала
обољевање значајног броја људи, а у неким случајевима исход је био фаталан.
Аналогно примеру грознице Западног Нила, може да се претпостави да већи
број зооноза које се преносе векторима, практично „куца на врата“ региона
југоисточне Европе. Тај регион може да се сматра пуфер зоном где са стране
југа и истока постоје мање или више удаљени региони где се ензоотски
појављују до сада „егзотичне“ зоонозе и из ког правца може да се очекује
продор вектора, а са њима и изазивача инфективних обољења које преносе.
Потенцијал трансмисије векторских зооноза се пре свега односи на обољења
која преносе инсекти и артроподе. У случају инсеката могао би да се очекује
нагли продор на пример, грознице Рифтске долине (Rift valley fever), инфекције Chikungunya вирусом (Chikungunya), јапанског енцефалитиса (Japanese
encephalitis) или жуте грознице (Yellow fever). Борба са оваквим зоонозама
пре свега треба да се заснива на контроли вектора. За неке од ових зооноза
већ постоје развијене вакцине за употребу у хуманој (на пример Јапански
енцефалитис) и ветеринарској (на пример грозница Западног Нила) медицини.
У случају да се ради о зоонозама које се преносе артроподама (Конго-Кримска
хеморагична грозница, крпељски енцефалитис), очекује се да се зараза шири
полако али стабилно, при чему већи значај имају дијагностичка испитивања
и примена метода присмотре и надзора присуства у врстама животиња које
могу да буду индикатори присуства обољења. У раду су приказани основни
механизми у трансмисији векторских зооноза као и поједине заразне болести
које се преносе инсектима и артроподама, а које имају значајан потенцијал да
угрозе регион југа и истока Европе.

као прави домаћини и резервоари изазивача зооноза. До пре две деценије
појава грознице Западног Нила (West Nile fever) у регионима света где се ова
зооноза појаљивала ензоотски и ендемски (на пример Афрички континент),
није заокупљала пажњу епизоотиолога и епидемиолога. Међутим, ова
заразна болест је у протеклих двадесетак година у нашем региону изазвала
обољевање значајног броја људи, а у неким случајевима исход је био фаталан.
Аналогно примеру грознице Западног Нила, може да се претпостави да већи
број зооноза које се преносе векторима, практично „куца на врата“ региона
југоисточне Европе. Тај регион може да се сматра пуфер зоном где са стране
југа и истока постоје мање или више удаљени региони где се ензоотски
појављују до сада „егзотичне“ зоонозе и из ког правца може да се очекује
продор вектора, а са њима и изазивача инфективних обољења које преносе.
Потенцијал трансмисије векторских зооноза се пре свега односи на обољења
која преносе инсекти и артроподе. У случају инсеката могао би да се очекује
нагли продор на пример, грознице Рифтске долине (Rift valley fever), инфекције Chikungunya вирусом (Chikungunya), јапанског енцефалитиса (Japanese
encephalitis) или жуте грознице (Yellow fever). Борба са оваквим зоонозама
пре свега треба да се заснива на контроли вектора. За неке од ових зооноза
већ постоје развијене вакцине за употребу у хуманој (на пример Јапански
енцефалитис) и ветеринарској (на пример грозница Западног Нила) медицини.
У случају да се ради о зоонозама које се преносе артроподама (Конго-Кримска
хеморагична грозница, крпељски енцефалитис), очекује се да се зараза шири
полако али стабилно, при чему већи значај имају дијагностичка испитивања
и примена метода присмотре и надзора присуства у врстама животиња које
могу да буду индикатори присуства обољења. У раду су приказани основни
механизми у трансмисији векторских зооноза као и поједине заразне болести
које се преносе инсектима и артроподама, а које имају значајан потенцијал да
угрозе регион југа и истока Европе.",

AB  - Parvoviruses are among the major animal pathogens that can cause considerable health disorders ranging from subclinical
to lethal in domestic and wild animals. Golden jackal (Canis aureus), an expanding European species, is a reservoir of many
pathogens, including vector-borne diseases and zoonoses. Given the importance of parvovirus infections in dogs and cats,
this study aimed to unfold the virus prevalence and molecular characterisation in the golden jackal population in Serbia.
The spleen samples from 68 hunted jackals during 2022/2023 were tested for the VP2-specific genome region of Protoparvovirus
carnivoran 1 by PCR. BLAST analysis of partial VP2 sequences obtained from three animals (4.4%) revealed the
highest similarity to Protoparvovirus carnivoran 1, genogroup Feline panleukopenia virus, which is the second report on
FPV infection in jackals. Based on specific amino acid residues within partial VP2, the jackals’ Protoparvovirus carnivoran
1 was also classified as FPV. One jackal’s strain showed two synonymous mutations at positions 699 and 1167. Although
species cross-transmission could not be established, jackals’ health should be maintained by preventing the transmission
of viruses to native species and vice versa. Although jackals are considered pests, their role as natural cleaners is of greater
importance. Therefore, further monitoring of their health is needed to understand the influence of infectious diseases on
population dynamics and to determine the relationship between domestic predators and jackals and the direction of crossspecies
transmission.

A parasitological examination of sample consisting of 10 fish, for the presence of Anisakis larvae in the viscera was visually performed under a stereomicroscope. Then, the viscera and epaxial and hypaxial muscles were removed and separately digested in pepsin/HCl solution. Samples were then examined microscopically in Petri dishes to detect and count the larvae. Between 10 and 14 larvae per fish were detected in the abdominal cavity. solated Anisakis spp. larvae were washed in 0.9% NaCl solution and rinsed in 70% alcohol and glacial acetic acid for microscopic observation and morphological study, which included notingthe presence of a boringtooth at the anterior end and oesophageal ventricle in the first third and posterior end of the larva, which varies between morphotypes IandII.The detected larvae were identified as based on distinct morphological criteria as Anisakis third-stage larvae (L3) type Ivia light microscopy.

AB  - Introduction: Zoonotic tick-borne diseases (TBDs) represent an increasing threat in urban areas, including city parks and green recreational areas. Borrelia miyamotoi is pathogenic to humans but there is still little information about its circulation in nature and potential local impact on human health, while tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) is endemic in many European countries and sporadic autochthonous cases in humans have been reported in Serbia. The objective of our study was to determine the prevalence of two emerging zoonotic tick-borne pathogens (TBPs) − B. miyamotoi and TBEV in urban areas in the city of Belgrade (24 localities), four localities in Eastern Serbia, one in the province of the Vojvodina. 
Methods: At 29 localities, a total of 480 ticks were collected from March to June 2021, and identified to the species level by using morphological keys. DNA and RNA were extracted from individual tick samples, while for molecular detection, probe-based qPCR and nested PCR were applied.
Results: Among 480 ticks, 445 were identified as Ixodes ricinus (213 males, 176 females, 56 nymphs), 30 as Dermacentor reticulatus (18 females, 12 males), three Dermacentor marginatus females, one Haemaphysalis concinna female, and one Haemaphysalis punctata male. Using probe-based qPCR, the prevalence of B. miyamotoi in ticks was 1.04% (DNA was detected in five I. ricinus, two females and two males collected from three Belgrade localities and one male from Eastern Serbia), while sequencing was successful in samples of two I. ricinus females collected from two Belgrade localities and one male from Eastern Serbia. TBEV RNA was not detected in any sample. 
Conclusions: This is the first report on the presence of the emerging zoonotic pathogen B. miyamotoi in I. ricinus ticks in urban green areas in Serbia, indicating the risk of B. miyamotoi disease. Risk areas within cities should be identified and knowledge regarding TBPs and TBDs among the general population in urban areas should be increased.

AB  - Infekcije parazitima predstavljaju značajan zdravstveni problem kod životinja, posebno držanih na zajedničkim pašnjacima, gde se mešaju različite vrste životinja. Uzrokuju ih protozoe, helminti i artropode. Kolika je prevalenca i kojih sve vrsta parazita trenutno ima u Srbiji teško je reći, s obzirom na to da se ovakva istraživanja vrše sporadično. To se pre svega odnosi na autohtone vrste i rase domaćih životinja, koje nisu obuhvaćane uobičajenim merama kontrole parazita. Na osnovu povremenih ispitivanja može se, ipak, steći slika o najčešćim parazitskim infekcijama koje ugrožavaju ove vrste životinja i one će detaljnije biti opisane u daljem tekstu.
AB  - Parasitic infections are a significant health problem in animals, especially kept in common pastures, where they mix different types of animals. They are caused by protozoa, helminths and arthropods. What is the prevalence and what kinds of parasites are there currently in Serbia it is difficult to say, given that such research is being carried out sporadically. This primarily refers to autochthonous species and domestic breeds animals that are not covered by the usual parasite control measures. On the basis of occasional tests, however, it is possible to get a picture of the most common parasitic infections that threaten these types of animals and they will be described in more detail below.

Uzrokuju ih protozoe, helminti i artropode. Kolika je prevalenca i kojih sve vrsta parazita trenutno ima u Srbiji teško je reći, s obzirom na to da se ovakva istraživanja vrše sporadično. To se pre svega odnosi na autohtone vrste i rase domaćih životinja, koje nisu obuhvaćane uobičajenim merama kontrole parazita. Na osnovu povremenih ispitivanja može se, ipak, steći slika o najčešćim parazitskim infekcijama koje ugrožavaju ove vrste životinja i one će detaljnije biti opisane u daljem tekstu., Parasitic infections are a significant health problem in animals, especially kept in common pastures, where they mix different types of animals. They are caused by protozoa, helminths and arthropods. What is the prevalence and what kinds of parasites are there currently in Serbia it is difficult to say, given that such research is being carried out sporadically. This primarily refers to autochthonous species and domestic breeds animals that are not covered by the usual parasite control measures. On the basis of occasional tests, however, it is possible to get a picture of the most common parasitic infections that threaten these types of animals and they will be described in more detail below.",

AB  - Coenurosisa is a zoonotic disease caused by the larval forms of Taenia multiceps which are great host's animals from the family of canids. The disease is global distribution but is most present in the Mediterranean, Middle East, Central Africa and Australia. Larvae exhibit tropism toward brain tissue, and cysts are usually located in the left hemisphere of the brain of small ruminants. Involvement of the brain can cause increased intracranial pressure, seizures, loss of consciousness, and focal neurologic deficits. During 2022 we  examinee one flocks of 78 milking sheep reared on hilly pastures located below the Zmajevac hill (397 m), between the branches of the Osimćki mountains and the river Zapadna Morava, at an altitude of 178 m. Symptoms of ataxia, such as unsteady gait and stumbling, and  depression were observed in 12 animals.  In 5 sheep, continuous aimless or circular movement, wandering, was also manifested. In addition to these symptoms, in one sheep that died, visual disturbances were observed depression and unilateral blindness. All affected sheep were slaughtered and a pathoanatomical examination was performed. In the brain of all animals we revealed the presence of infestation with one to four coenuri  4.1-5.5 cm in size. The sites of predilection were the left hemisphere (48%), followed by the right hemisphere (40%) and the cerebellum (12%). The coenurus has a thin wall surrounding a single cavity that contains a clear fluid.  When the cysts were opened, numerous scoleces were found inside, from 2 to 3 mm in diameter attached to the cyst wall. Each scolex has four circular suckers and two rows of hooks on a rostellum. The hook lengths are 147 to 165 µm and 87 to 125 µm.The results show that C. cerebralis was a major cause of the nervous manifestations of cenurosis in clinically affected sheep.

AB  - Nutria (Myocastor coypus) is an invasive rodent species native for South America,
whose population is stable and numerous in the territory of the Republic of Serbia.
This species has been bred by humans because of its fur for decades before it became
widespread in all continents apart from Antarctic and Oceania. Nutria lives in
wetlands, along the banks of larger rivers and other water bodies. Although they are
predominately herbivores, they can also feed on food of animal origin, as carcasses,
insects, small mammals and birds, fish or molluscs. In the countries where nutria is
used as food, the infections of humans with Trichinella spp. were described. There is
limited literature data on the presence of parasites in nutria, but with existing records
on important parasites such as Echinococcus multilocularis for which nutria is
reservoir species. The aim of our research was to get insight in the parasitic fauna of
nutria in Serbia, an invasive species whose biology and diseases remain unstudied.
During 2022 and 2023, total of 101 nutria specimens were legally hunted (15 juvenile,
8 subadults and 78 adults), and transported to Pathology department of the Scientific
Veterinary Institute of Serbia. After outer inspection of the specimens no ectoparasites
were found. After autopsy, from the intestine adult parasites were isolated and a
morphological determination of species was performed. The parasites were found in
12 specimens from which 11 were adults and 1 was juvenile. Using morphological
determination, the presence of adult Echinococcus multilocularis was established.
Furthermore, samples of tongue and/or jaw musculature were taken from 90
specimens for the determination of presence of Trichinella spp. larvae using artificial
digestion method. There was no Trichinella spp. present in our samples.
To the best of our knowledge, these are the first evidence of Echinococcus
multilocularis presence and Trichinella spp. absence in nutria population of Serbia.
To better understand the role of this species in natural cycles of parasites, further
research is needed.

AB  - During study of gastrointestinal helminths of small ruminants in Serbia, performed from
2010 to 2020 we collected fecal samples from 470 herds in various part of Serbia.
Samples were colected at monthly intervals and we examined more than 6500 faecal
samples. Examination was performed using standard coprological technique. During ten
years 738 sheep and goats we were examined by post-mortem examination.
Determination of adult parasites and eggs of parasites were done by morphological
characteristic. During these investigations, the following GI helminths were found in
sheep:: Haemonchus contortus, Teladorsagia (Ostertagia) circumcincta, Ostertagia
trifurcata, Ostertagia ostertagi, Ostertagia occidentalis, Marshallagia marshalli,
Trichostrongylus axei, Trichostrongylus colubriformis, Trichostrongylus vitrinus,

AB  - Listeria monocytogenes je fakultativni, intracelularni, gram-pozitivni štapić koji je odgovoran za
pojavu listerioze. Oboljenje obično nastaje konzumiranjem hrane koja je kontaminirana listerijom,
posebno mlečnih proizvoda, lisnatog povrća, ribe i mesa. Listeria se može naći u domaćinstvu, restoranima
i drugim mestima kao što su prodavnice ili fabrike za preradu hrane. Patogen je sveprisutan, jer
se može naći u zemljištu, vodi i vegetaciji kao i u digestivnom traktu ljudi.
Namirnice koje imaju najveću stopu infekcija povezanih sa L. monocytogenes uključuju: sirove klice,
nepasterizovano mleko, meki sirevi, hladno meso, hladne viršle i dimljeni morski plodovi. L. monocytogenes
raste na temperaturama frižidera, tačnije, niske temperature indukuju enzime kao što je
RNK helikaza koja poboljšava aktivnost i replikaciju L. monocytogenes na niskim temperaturama
dok sposobnost proizvodnje biofilma povećava sposobnost L. monocytogenes da preživi u teškim
uslovima. Ona takođe koristi flagele na nižim temperaturama koje joj omogućavaju da se pokreće
i uhvati za enterocite u ranoj fazi infekcije koje se gube kada je bakterija duže izložena višim temperaturama.
Ljudi koji su u najvećem riziku da budu pogođeni listeriozom su trudnice, mala deca,
odrasli stariji od 60 godina i osobe sa oslabljenim imunološkim sistemom. Praćenje smernica za
bezbednost hrane može smanjiti šansu za dobijanje i širenje listerioze.
Nadzor listerioze kod ljudi u EU se fokusira na invazivne oblike L. monocytoges infekcija, koja se
uglavnom manifestuje kao septikemija, simptomi slični gripu, meningitis ili spontani pobačaj.
Dijagnoza listerijskih infekcija kod ljudi se generalno sprovodi kultivacijom uzoraka krvi, cerebrospinalne
tečnosti i vaginalnih briseva ili detekcijom nukleinske kiseline. Prema Centru za kontrolu
bolesti (CDC), otprilike 1.600 ljudi oboli od listerioze svake godine, a oko 260 ljudi umre od te bolesti.
Bolest je najčešća kod trudnica, odojčadi, imunokompromitovanih i starijih (65 i više godina). 
Trudnice su takođe izložene riziku jer mogu dobiti L. monocytogenes i preneti je na nerođeni fetus. Prema
podacima EFSA Journal u 27 država tokom 2021.godine prijaviljeno je 2.183 potvrđenih slučaja invazivne
listerioze kod ljudi u Evropi. Tokom našeg istraživanja u poslednjih pet godina ispitano je preko 5000
uzoraka. L. monoctogenes je izolovana i identifikovana u manje od 1% uzoraka i to u mesnih prerađevina
(kao npr. dimljena hamburška slanina, viršla, mortadela, dimljena roštilj kobasica), u mlečnih prerađevina
(sir), zatim uzorcima dimljenog lososa i briseva radnih površina u proizvodnim pogonima.

AB  - Listeria monocytogenes is a facultative, intracellular, gram-positive rod which is responsible for the
occurrence of listeriosis. Illness is usually caused by eating food contaminated with listeria, especially
dairy products, leafy greens, fish and meat. Listeria can be found in households, restaurants,
and other places such as grocery stores or food processing plants. The pathogen is ubiquitous, as
it can be found in soil, water and vegetation as well as in the digestive tract of humans. Foods that
have the highest rates of L. monocytogenes related infections include: raw sprouts, unpasteurized
milk, soft cheeses, cold meats, cold hot dogs, and smoked seafood. L. monocytogenes grows at
refrigerator temperatures, specifically, low temperatures induce enzymes such as RNA helicase that
enhances the activity and replication of L. monocytogenes at low temperatures while the ability to
produce biofilms increases the ability of L. monocytogenes to survive in harsh conditions. It also
uses flagella at lower temperatures that allow it to move and latch on to enterocytes early in the
infection, which are lost when the bacterium is exposed to higher temperatures for longer.
The people most at risk of contracting listeriosis are pregnant women, young children, adults over
60, and people with weakened immune systems. Following food safety guidelines can reduce the
chance of getting and spreading listeriosis. Surveillance of human listeriosis in the EU focuses on
invasive forms of L. monocytoges infections, which mainly manifest as septicaemia, flu-like symptoms,
meningitis or abortion. Diagnosis of listeria infections in humans is generally performed by culture
of blood samples, cerebrospinal fluid, and vaginal swabs or by nucleic acid detection.
According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), approximately 1,600 people contract listeriosis
each year, and about 260 people die from the disease. The disease is most common in pregnant
women, infants, the immunocompromised and the elderly (65 and older). Pregnant women are also
at risk because they can contract L. monocytogenes and pass it on to the unborn fetus.
According to EFSA Journal data, 2,183 confirmed cases of invasive listeriosis in humans were reported
in 27 countries in 2021 in Europe. During our research in the last five years, over 5000 samples were
examined. L. monoctogenes was isolated and identified in less than 1% of samples, such as meat
products (such as smoked Hamburg bacon, hot dogs, mortadella, smoked barbecue sausage),
in dairy products (cheese), then in samples of smoked salmon and swabs of working surfaces in
production facilities.
The subject in the food business is obliged to comply with the Rulebook on general and special conditions
of food hygiene in every phase of production, processing and circulation (Official Gazette of
RS No. 72/10) and the Rulebook on amendments and additions according to the Rulebook on general
and special food hygiene conditions at any stage of production, processing and circulation (Official
Gazette of RS No. 62/18) and the HACCP plan, testing of food safety parameters is carried out, which
defines the acceptability of the product or the production batch, which includes L. monocytogenes.

AB  - The mosquito-borne flaviviruses West Nile virus (WNV) and Usutu virus (USUV) pose a significant threat to the health of humans and animals. Both viruses co-circulate in numerous European countries including Germany. Due to their overlapping host and vector ranges, there is a high risk of co-infections. However, it is largely unknown if WNV and USUV interact and how this might influence their epidemiology. Therefore, in-vitro infection experiments in mammalian (Vero B4), goose (GN-R) and mosquito cell lines (C6/36, CT) were performed to investigate potential effects of co-infections in vectors and vertebrate hosts. The growth kinetics of German and other European WNV and USUV strains were determined and compared. Subsequently, simultaneous co-infections were performed with selected WNV and USUV strains. The results show that the growth of USUV was suppressed by WNV in all cell lines. This effect was independent of the virus lineage but depended on the set WNV titre. The replication of WNV also decreased in co-infection scenarios on vertebrate cells. Overall, co-infections might lead to a decreased growth of USUV in mosquitoes and of both viruses in vertebrate hosts. These interactions can strongly affect the epidemiology of USUV and WNV in areas where they co-circulate.

abstract = "The mosquito-borne flaviviruses West Nile virus (WNV) and Usutu virus (USUV) pose a significant threat to the health of humans and animals. Both viruses co-circulate in numerous European countries including Germany. Due to their overlapping host and vector ranges, there is a high risk of co-infections. However, it is largely unknown if WNV and USUV interact and how this might influence their epidemiology. Therefore, in-vitro infection experiments in mammalian (Vero B4), goose (GN-R) and mosquito cell lines (C6/36, CT) were performed to investigate potential effects of co-infections in vectors and vertebrate hosts. The growth kinetics of German and other European WNV and USUV strains were determined and compared. Subsequently, simultaneous co-infections were performed with selected WNV and USUV strains. The results show that the growth of USUV was suppressed by WNV in all cell lines. This effect was independent of the virus lineage but depended on the set WNV titre. The replication of WNV also decreased in co-infection scenarios on vertebrate cells.

(USUV) requires the fast and efficient surveillance of these viruses. The examination of mosquitoes
takes up an important part; however, these investigations are usually very time-consuming. An
alternative sample type for arbovirus surveillance might be mosquito excreta. In order to determine
the excretion dynamics under laboratory conditions, laboratory colonies of Aedes vexans and Culex
pipiens biotype molestus were infected with WNV, USUV or tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV). After
infection, the excreta were sampled and investigated for viral RNA. Excretion of viral RNA together
with infectious blood meal could be detected up to five days after infection. Further excretion seemed
to correlate with a disseminated infection in mosquitoes, at least after USUV infection. In addition,
it could be determined that the amount of viral RNA in the excretions correlated positively with
the viral load in the mosquito bodies. Overall, this study shows that the usage of mosquito excreta
as a sample type for surveillance enables the detection of endemic viruses (WNV, USUV) as well
as non-mosquito-borne viruses (TBEV). In addition, examination of viral shedding during vector
competence studies can provide insights into the course of infection without sacrificing animals.

AB  - The mosquito-borne zoonotic flaviviruses West Nile virus (WNV) and Usutu virus (USUV) are endemic in many European countries and emerged in Germany in recent years. Due to the increasing overlap of their distribution areas and their similar epidemiology, coinfections of WNV and USUV are possible. Indeed, coinfections in vertebrate hosts as a rare event have already been reported from some countries including Germany. However, it is largely unknown whether and to what extent coinfections could affect the vector competence of mosquitoes for WNV and USUV. For this purpose, the mosquito species Culex pipiens biotype pipiens, Culex pipiens biotype molestus, and Aedes vexans were orally infected in mono- and simultaneous coinfections with German strains of WNV and USUV. Mosquitoes were incubated for 14 days at 26°C, 85% relative humidity, and a 16 : 8 light-dark photocycle, before they were dissected and forced to salivate. The results showed a decrease in USUV susceptibility in Culex pipiens biotype pipiens, an increase in USUV susceptibility in Aedes vexans, and no obvious interaction between both viruses in Culex pipiens biotype molestus. Vector competence for WNV appeared to be unaffected by a simultaneous occurrence of USUV in all tested mosquito species. Coinfections with both viruses were only found in Culex mosquitoes, and cotransmission of WNV and USUV was observed in Culex pipiens biotype molestus. Overall, our results show that viral interactions between WNV and USUV vary between mosquito species, and that the interaction mainly occurs during infection and replication in the mosquito midgut. The results of this study confirm that to fully understand the interaction between WNV and USUV, studies with various mosquito species are necessary. In addition, we found that even mosquito species with a low susceptibility to both viruses, such as Ae. vexans, can play a role in their transmission in areas with cocirculation.

AB  - Afrička kuga svinja (AKS) je virusna hemoragična bolest domaćih i divljih svinja koja se
širi u Evropi sa istoka na zapad kontinuirano od 2007. godine kada je virus unesen u Gruziju
putem otpada iz luke. Jedna je od najznačajnijih bolesti svinja kada se u obzir uzmu posledice po
zdravlje životinja, ekonomske štete i posledice po društvo u celini. Odsustvo specifične terapije i
mogućnosti za vakcinaciju kod svinja u Evropi svrstava ovu bolest kao prioritetnu za sprečavanje
njene pojave, suzbijanje širenja i iskorenjivanje, ali i nameće potrebu za daljim istraživanjima
osobina virusa afričke kuge svinja i njegovog odnosa sa vektorima i domaćinom.
Virus afričke kuge svinja je DNK virus iz familije Asfarviridae i roda Asfivirus, čija
transmisija je dokazana kod nekoliko vrsta mekih krpelja iz roda Ornithodoros što ovaj virus
svrstava u grupu arbovirusa (virusa koje prenose artropodni vektori- arthropod-borne virus).
Prisustvo mekih-argasidnih krpelja roda Ornithodoros u Evropi je ograničeno na vrstu
Ornithodoros erraticus i na uska područja južnog dela Evrope (Španija). Dokazano je da tvrdi
krpelji, najrasprostranjenije vrste krpelja u Evropi nisu biološki vektori virusa afričke kuge svinja.
Međutim, postoji mogućnost prenosa virusa afričke kuge svinja putem niza artropodnih vektora
na primer iz familija Ceratopogonidae, Culicidae, Tabanidae, Muscidae o čijoj se ulozi u prenosu
virusa afričke kuge svinja i epidemiologiji bolesti malo zna.
Cilj ovog rada je da prikaže trenutna saznanja o najčešće označenim potencijalnim

AB  - Due to the increasing demand for poultry products from traditional farming systems, the growing
trend for keeping chickens in alternative production systems has also been observed worldwide.
Different types of extensive systems such are organic production, low-input production systems,
and free-range systems have experienced significant growth in response to this trend in our
country. The Government of the Republic of Serbia, within the framework of the Program for the
Preservation of Autochthonous Genotypes, supports the development of extensive rearing
systems for poultry in the form of significant annual subsidies. We have three types of backyard
farming systems: permanent confinement, free-range, and mixed confinement. Mixed
confinement is the most frequent system and implies, the birds scavenge freely in the courtyard
of the farmer’s house during the day, and at night they are kept in an improvised house (hennery
or chicken coop). These rearing systems often consist of free, native, unselected breeds of various
ages, mixed with different poultry/bird species in the flocks. They are less standardized than
intensive-rearing systems. In addition, not enough attention is paid to the need to protect
backyard poultry. Most of these birds are kept outdoors where the birds forage around the house
or in the backyard during the day. Access to the outdoors brings poultry into contact with wild
birds and other animals that can carry various diseases. The results from our laboratories showed
that due to poor or absent disease control strategies and inadequate hygiene, in the last 7 years,
the most frequent cause of outbreaks and high mortalities of backyard poultry in Serbia were
pathogens such as bacteria (E. coli, Clostridium perfringens), viruses (Marek's disease virus, Avian
leucosis virus), fungi (Aspergillus spp.) and parasites (Ascaridia galli, Eimeria spp, Dermanyssus
gallinae). Vaccination against Marek's disease virus is not legally binding; therefore, this disease
was found as a cause of death in 41,61% of backyard poultry. Infrastructure prevents the
implementation of adequate biosecurity measures and lacks a vaccination strategy against
infectious diseases. Since the emergence of HPAI subtype H5N8 infection in Serbia was recorded
in wild birds, backyard poultry is at a higher risk of HPAI infection, especially those near large stillwater surfaces. Farmers should be trained and advised to set external and internal biosecurity
measures that are financially, and technically feasible, and acceptable.

AB  - Canine leptospirosis is a zoonosis caused by bacteria belonging to the genus Leptospira. Dogs are one of the animal species involved in the cycle of preservation and transmission of leptospirosis in urban areas. Serological testing for the presence of specific antibodies against Leptospira spp. in dogs was continuously performed between 2010 and 2020 in the city of Belgrade. At the request of the owners themselves, other veterinary laboratories or laboratory clinics, 179 blood sera from 179 dogs were examined in the Laboratory for Immunology, Scientific Institute of Veterinary Medicine of Serbia. Blood sera samples from dogs were examined using the standard microscopic agglutination test (MAT) for the presence of specific antibodies against seven different serovars of Leptospira: Pomona, Icterohaemorrhagiae, Grippotyphosa, Sejroe, Canicola, Bataviae, and Australis. The number of seropositive dogs was 17/179 (9.5%). Among all examined sera, the highest titre of seropositive samples was to serovar Icterohaemorrhagiae (10/17, 58.8%), followed by Pomona (4/17, 23.5%), and serovar Canicola (3/17, 17.6%). Specific antibodies for serovars Grippotyphosa, Sejroe, Bataviae and Australis were not detected in any of the dog sera. Cross-reaction (the presence of two or three titres with different values where one of them was higher than others) between different serovars was diagnosed in a low number of sera (n=4), with the following serovars: Icterohaemorrhagiae and Pomona (n=3) and Pomona and Canicola (n=1). The confirmed specific antibody titres for Leptospira spp. were between 1:100 to 1:3000 (5 sera had titres of 1:100, 7 had titres of 1:300, 4 had titres of 1:1000, and 1 serum had a titre 1:3000).

AB  - West Nile virus (WNV) is a zoonotic mosquito-borne virus classified as family Flaviviridae and genus Flavivirus. The first WNV outbreak in humans in the Republic of Serbia was recorded in 2012. Equids and dogs can show clinical symptoms after WNV infection and are often used as sentinels. This study aimed to (i) give insight into seropositivity for WNV in clinically healthy dog and horse sera in different regions of Serbia and (ii) compare diagnostic value of ‘in-house’ and commercially available indirect immunofluorescence (IFA) and enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA) tests to ‘gold standard’ virus neutralization test (VNT). Due to cross-reactivity, sera were tested for Usutu virus and tick-borne encephalitis virus in VNT based on the epidemiological data of field presence. Blood sera of dogs (n = 184) and horses (n = 232) were collected from 2011 to 2013. The seropositivity was confirmed by VNT in 36.9 % tested dog sera and 34.9% tested horse sera with highest positivity in regions near two big rivers, while in four dog and seven horse sera, positivity resulted from Usutu virus infection. Comparative results of diagnostic tests in dogs ranged from 18.7 % seropositivity by ‘in-house’ ELISA to 31.9% by commercially available ELISA. In horses, seropositivity ranged from 36.2% by ‘in-house’ IFA to 32.5% by commercially available IFA and from 26.3% by ‘in-house’ IgG ELISA to 20.9% by commercially available ELISA. There were no statistically significant differences according to the McNemar test between ‘in-house’ and commercially available IFA and ELISA test in horse sera, while the same was not true for two ELISAs used in dog sera (χ2 = 8.647, p = .003). Established seropositivity in dogs and horses was in accordance with the epidemiological situation and WNV spread in the Republic of Serbia and proven Usutu virus co-circulation. ‘In-house’ tests remain a valuable tool in early diagnostics of WNV.

AB  - West Nile virus (WNV) is a zoonotic flavivirus transmitted by mosquitoes as a biological
vector. Because of its biting behavior, the widespread snow-melt mosquito Aedes punctor could be
a potential bridge vector for WNV to humans and nonhuman mammals. However, little is known
on its role in transmission of WNV. The aim of this study was to determine the vector competence
of German Ae. punctor for WNV lineages 1 and 2. Field-collected larvae and pupae were reared to
adults and offered infectious blood containing either an Italian WNV lineage 1 or a German WNV
lineage 2 strain via cotton stick feeding. Engorged females were incubated for 14/15 or 21 days at
18 ◦C. After incubation; surviving mosquitoes were dissected and forced to salivate. Mosquito bodies
with abdomens, thoraces and heads, legs plus wings and saliva samples were investigated for WNV
RNA by RT-qPCR. Altogether, 2/70 (2.86%) and 5/85 (5.88%) mosquito bodies were found infected
with WNV lineage 1 or 2, respectively. In two mosquitoes, viral RNA was also detected in legs and
wings. No saliva sample contained viral RNA. Based on these results, we conclude that Ae. punctor
does not play an important role in WNV transmission in Germany.

AB  - Истраживања улоге шакала (Canis aureus) и лисице (Vulpes vulpes) у ензоотским циклусима векторима преносивих патогена у Европи, показала су да ове дивље каниде представљају значајне домаћине резервоаре за већи број узрочника као што су: Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato, Anaplasma phagocytophilum, Ehrlichia canis, Bartonella spp., Babesia canis, Hepatozoon canis, Leishmania spp. Због тога што живе у непосредној близини људи и често су изложени већем броју раз- личитих врста артроподних вектора (крпељи, флеботомине, буве, комарци...), златни шакали и црвене лисице представљају погодне врсте за мониторинг већег броја векторима преносивих болести. 
Истраживања улоге дивљих канида у ензоотским циклусима векторима преносивих болести у Србији су новијег датума. Код златних шакала одстрељених на више локалитета широм Србије, применом PCR-a у реалном времену, потврђено је присуство Leishmania spp., са укупном преваленцијом од 6,9%. Налаз указује на циркулацију узрочника лајшманиозе у силватичном циклусу на територији наше земље. Иако аутохтони случајеви лајшманиозе у Србији до данас нису са сигурношћу потврђени, резултати истраживања указују на реалну опасност од појаве аутхотоних случајева лајшманиозе у хуманој популацији и популацији домаћих канида. Такође, код анализираних шакала молекуларним методама доказано је присуство ДНК A. phagocytophilum (0,9%), значајног зоонозног патогена и узрочника анаплазмозе људи и животиња, те присуство најчешћег узрочника бабезиозе паса, В. canis са укупном преваленцијом од 4,2%. Молекуларним методама код лисица одстрељених на локали- тетима у Србији такође је потврђено присуство неколико векторима преносивих патогена: Neoehrlichia sp. (FU98) (4,7%), H. canis (61,2%), три врсте борелија: Borrelia burgdorferi sensu stricto (0,8%), Borrelia lusitaniae (1,6%), Borrelia garinii (0,8%), и две врсте бабезија: Babesia vulpes (28,7%) и B. canis (0,8%). Приказани резултати су потврда да шакали и лисице могу бити коришћене као сентинел врсте за адекватан надзор болести које се преносе векторима на територији наше земље. На основу резултата мониторинга могућа је израда планова превентивних мера у циљу заштите здравља људи и домаћих животиња.
AB  - Studies on the role of the jackals (Canis aureus) and the foxes (Vulpes vulpes) in 
enzootic cycles of vector-borne pathogens in Europe have shown that these wild canids are significant reservoirs for several pathogens such as Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato, Anaplasma phagocytophilum, Ehrlichia canis, Bartonella spp., Babesia canis, Hepatozoon canis, Leishmania spp. Because they live close to humans and are often exposed to many different species of arthropod vectors (ticks, sandflies, fleas, mosquitoes,..), golden jackals and red foxes are suitable for monitoring many vector-borne diseases. Research on the role of wild canids in enzootic cycles of vector- borne diseases in Serbia is recent. The presence of Leishmania spp. was confirmed with real-time PCR in jackals shot at several localities throughout Serbia, with a total prevalence of 6.9%. The finding indicates the circulation of the causative agent of leishmaniasis in the sylvatic cycle on the territory of our country. Although autochthonous cases of leishmaniasis in Serbia have not been confirmed with certainty to date, the results of our research indicate a real threat of the occurrence of autochthonous cases of leishmaniasis in the human population and the population of domestic canids. Also, in the analyzed jackals, the presence of A. phagocytophilum DNA (0.9%), a significant zoonotic pathogen and cause of human and animal anaplasmosis, and the presence of the most common cause of canine babesiosis, B. canis with a total prevalence of 4.2%, was proven by molecular methods. By molecular methods in foxes shot at localities in Serbia was also confirmed the presence of several vector-borne pathogens: Neoehrlichia sp. (FU98) (4.7%), H. canis (61.2%), three Borrelia species: Borrelia burgdorferi sensu stricto (0.8%), Borrelia lusitaniae (1.6%), Borrelia garinii (0.8%), and two Babesia species: Babesia vulpes (28.7%) and B. canis (0.8%). The presented results are a confirmation that jackals and foxes can be used as adequate sentinel species for the vector-borne diseases on the territory of our country. Based on the results of monitoring, it is possible to develop plans of preventive measures to protect the health of humans and domestic animals.

AB  - Infectious diseases, zoonoses included, which appear enzootic in some areas, represent a threat to remote regions of the world. This refers to zoonoses that are transmitted by vectors, which not only transmit the causative agent, but also appear as hosts and reservoirs of zoonoses. 
Until two decades ago, the presence of West Nile fever did not occupy the attention of epizootiologists. However, this disease has affected a significant number of people in our region in the past twenty years. It is assumed that a larger number of vector zoonoses are practically "knocking on the door of Europe", with the region of southern Europe representing a buffer zone for the emergence of epizootics and epidemics. The transmission potential of vector zoonoses refers to diseases transmitted by insects and arthropods. In the case of insects, these include Rift valley fever, Chikungunya virus, Japanese encephalitis or Yellow fever. The fight against such zoonoses should primarily be based on vector control. For some of these zoonoses, vaccines have already been developed for use in human (Japanese encephalitis) and veterinary (West Nile fever) medicine. In the case of arthropod-borne zoonoses (Congo- Crimean hemorrhagic fever, tick-borne encephalitis), the infection is expected to spread slowly but steadily, and diagnostic tests and methods of surveillance and monitoring the presence of animal species which are indicators of the presence of disease are of great importance. This presentation deals with vector zoonoses transmitted by insects and arthropods, which have a significant potential to endanger the region of southern and eastern Europe.
