In the USA, most cases are associated with species that are not commonly found or reported rabid. To understand better the epidemiology and public health significance of potentially important bat species, a molecular study was performed on samples collected from naturally infected rabid western pipistrelle (<jats:italic>Pipistrellus hesperus<\/jats:italic>), eastern pipistrelle (<jats:italic>Pipistrellus subflavus<\/jats:italic>) and silver-haired bats (<jats:italic>Lasionycteris noctivagans<\/jats:italic>) from different regions of their geographical distribution in the USA. A 264\u2005bp fragment at the 5\u2032 end of the N gene coding region was sequenced and analysed in comparison with rabies virus variants circulating within other North American mammals. Phylogenetic analysis demonstrated that <jats:italic>P. hesperus<\/jats:italic> bats maintain a unique rabies virus variant. Preliminary data also suggest that <jats:italic>P. subflavus<\/jats:italic> and <jats:italic>Lasionycteris noctivagans<\/jats:italic> may harbour two different rabies virus variants (Ps and Ln) that are likely to be maintained independently by each bat species, which recently appear to have emerged as major vectors of human disease.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1099\/vir.0.81822-0","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,7,17]],"date-time":"2006-07-17T21:51:15Z","timestamp":1153173075000},"page":"2309-2321","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":28,"title":["A new phylogenetic lineage of Rabies virus associated with western pipistrelle bats (Pipistrellus hesperus)"],"prefix":"10.1099","volume":"87","author":[{"given":"Richard","family":"Franka","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, DVRD\/VRZB\/Rabies, G33, 1600 Clifton Road NE, Atlanta, GA 30333, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Denny G.","family":"Constantine","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"1899 Olmo Way, Walnut Creek, CA 94598-1446, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ivan","family":"Kuzmin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, DVRD\/VRZB\/Rabies, G33, 1600 Clifton Road NE, Atlanta, GA 30333, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Andres","family":"Velasco-Villa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, DVRD\/VRZB\/Rabies, G33, 1600 Clifton Road NE, Atlanta, GA 30333, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Serena A.","family":"Reeder","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biology and Center for Disease Ecology, Emory University, Atlanta, GA 30333, USA"},{"name":"Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, DVRD\/VRZB\/Rabies, G33, 1600 Clifton Road NE, Atlanta, GA 30333, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Daniel","family":"Streicker","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, DVRD\/VRZB\/Rabies, G33, 1600 Clifton Road NE, Atlanta, GA 30333, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lillian A.","family":"Orciari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, DVRD\/VRZB\/Rabies, G33, 1600 Clifton Road NE, Atlanta, GA 30333, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anna J.","family":"Wong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Viral and Rickettsial Diseases Laboratory, California Department of Health Services, 850 Marina Bay Parkway, Richmond, CA 94804-6403, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jesse D.","family":"Blanton","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, DVRD\/VRZB\/Rabies, G33, 1600 Clifton Road NE, Atlanta, GA 30333, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Charles E.","family":"Rupprecht","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, DVRD\/VRZB\/Rabies, G33, 1600 Clifton Road NE, Atlanta, GA 30333, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"345","reference":[{"key":"R1","volume-title":"Bats of America","author":"Barbour","year":"1969"},{"key":"R2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"5","DOI":"10.1016\/j.virusres.2005.03.006","article-title":"Overview of rabies in the Americas","volume":"111","author":"Belotto","year":"2005","journal-title":"Virus Res"},{"key":"R3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"643","DOI":"10.2307\/1382994","article-title":"Roosts used by maternity colonies of silver-haired bats in northeastern Oregon","volume":"79","author":"Betts","year":"1998","journal-title":"J Mammal"},{"key":"R4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"976","DOI":"10.2307\/1382778","article-title":"Conservation of bats in managed forests: use of roosts by Lasionycteris noctivagans","volume":"77","author":"Campbell","year":"1996","journal-title":"J Mammal"},{"key":"R5","first-page":"93","article-title":"Human rabies -
