| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this project, we examined the possility of arthropod-borne pathogens to be carried to Japan. In Mongol, many horses were infected with mosquito-borne Getah virus and tick-borne encephalitis virus and Wad Medani virus were detected from ticks. In surveillance of tick-borne pathogens in ticks fed on migratory birds in Japan, several tick-borne zoonotic pathogens, Kemerovo virus、Muko virus, Mukawa virus, Borrelia garinii and B. bavariensis, were detected. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that these tick-borne pathogens might be transferred to Japan by ticks fed on migratory birds.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究成果により、海外から渡り鳥に咬着したマダニにより節足動物媒介感染症が侵入していることが示唆された。感染症の侵入経路として、渡り鳥による病原体保有マダニも考慮して対策を行う必要性が強く示唆された。
