In this study we report\n Babesia capreoli<\/jats:italic>\n infection in Korean water deer (\n Hydropotes inermis argyropus<\/jats:italic>\n ). Blood samples of 77 wild animals (62 Korean water deer and 15 Korean raccoon dogs [\n Nyctereutes procyonoides koreensis<\/jats:italic>\n ]) were analyzed to detect\n Babesia<\/jats:italic>\n infection. First, PCR was performed to investigate\n Babesia<\/jats:italic>\n infection using the partial 18S rRNA gene. Among the 77 wild animals examined, 11 Korean water deer were positive for infection as per the results of sequence analysis. Next, these 11 samples were reanalyzed by PCR using newly designed primers to differentiate between\n B. capreoli<\/jats:italic>\n and\n Babesia divergens<\/jats:italic>\n . Finally, only one Korean water deer sample was found to be positive for\n B. capreoli<\/jats:italic>\n . The nucleotide sequence of this protozoan showed 99.6\u2009\u2212\u200999.7% identity to those of\n B. capreoli<\/jats:italic>\n reported previously. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that the sequence belonged to the\n B. capreoli<\/jats:italic>\n clade and diverged from the\n B. divergens<\/jats:italic>\n clade. Three nucleotides at positions 631, 663, and 1637 were analyzed to differentiate between\n B. capreoli<\/jats:italic>\n and\n B. divergens<\/jats:italic>\n . The nucleotides at positions 631 and 1637 were identical to those of\n B. capreoli<\/jats:italic>\n , whereas that at position 663 was different. The sequence detected in Korean water deer also exhibited differences at other four positions (669, 704, 711, and 1661) compared with other\n B. capreoli<\/jats:italic>\n sequences. This study indicates that Korean water deer serve as a reservoir for\n B. capreoli<\/jats:italic>\n . In addition, the primers designed in this study can be used to detect\n B. capreoli<\/jats:italic>\n . Future studies should explore the tick vectors that transmit\n B. capreoli<\/jats:italic>\n and its pathogenicity. This study was approved by the Institutional Committee of Graduate Studies and Research at Jeonbuk National University, ROK (IACUC decision no.: CBU 2014-00026).\n <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1089\/vbz.2021.0060","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,2,15]],"date-time":"2022-02-15T12:05:53Z","timestamp":1644926753000},"page":"178-183","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Identification of\n Babesia capreoli<\/i>\n from Korean Water Deer in the Republic of Korea"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"22","author":[{"given":"Yu-Jin","family":"Park","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Animal Science and Biotechnology, College of Ecology and Environmental Science, Kyungpook National University, Sangju, Republic of Korea."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Eun-Mi","family":"Kim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Animal Science and Biotechnology, College of Ecology and Environmental Science, Kyungpook National University, Sangju, Republic of Korea."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hyung-Chul","family":"Cho","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Animal Science and Biotechnology, College of Ecology and Environmental Science, Kyungpook National University, Sangju, Republic of Korea."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Seung-Uk","family":"Shin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Animal Science and Biotechnology, College of Ecology and Environmental Science, Kyungpook National University, Sangju, Republic of Korea."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Joon-Seok","family":"Chae","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Veterinary Internal Medicine, BK21 PLUS Program for Creative Veterinary Science Research, Research Institute for Veterinary Science and College of Veterinary Medicine, Seoul National University, Seoul, Republic of Korea."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jinho","family":"Park","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Veterinary Medicine, Jeonbuk National University, Iksan, Republic of Korea."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2271-5360","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kyoung-Seong","family":"Choi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Animal Science and Biotechnology, College of Ecology and Environmental Science, Kyungpook National University, Sangju, Republic of Korea."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,3,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_5_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s13071-016-1503-8"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1017\/S0031182004005190"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ttbdis.2017.06.006"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.7589\/0090-3558-44.1.168"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_6_1","first-page":"65","article-title":"Presence of potentially pathogenic Babesia sp. for human in Ixodes ricinus in Switzerland","volume":"13","author":"Casati S","year":"2006","unstructured":"Casati S, , Sager H, , Gern L, , Piffaretti JC.
