Resumo: The present study aimed to use polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to detect species of the order Piroplasmida, such as Anaplasma spp., Borrelia spp., and Ehrlichia spp., circulating in the blood of Didelphis aurita in a peridomiciliary environment. Blood samples collected from big-eared opossum (Didelphis aurita) were screened for hemoparasites using PCR. The extracted DNA was tested for tick-borne hemoparasites. We were unable to detect hemoparasites, such as Ehrlichia spp., Babesia spp., Anaplasma spp., and Borrelia spp. Theileria DNA was detected in only one sample screened using PCR for an approximately 650-base pair fragment of the 18S rRNA gene. Sequencing and BLAST analysis of a subset of the PCR amplicons revealed 97% (535/553 bp) identity with Theileria bicornis. The detection of Theileria sp. in D. aurita challenges us to pursue more in-depth studies of marsupial piroplasmosids and to evaluate the morphological aspects of the findings and their possible involvement in zoonoses.

Amostras de sangue coletadas de gambá da orelha preta (Didelphis aurita) foram triadas para hemoparasitas por meio da PCR. O DNA extraído foi testado para alguns hemoparasitas transmitidos por carrapatos. Não conseguimos detectar hemoparasitos, como Ehrlichia spp., Babesia spp., Anaplasma spp. e Borrelia spp. O DNA de Theileria foi detectado apenas em uma amostra. Um fragmento de ~650 pares de bases do gene 18S rRNA foi sequenciado. e a análise pelo BLAST (um subconjunto de amplicons de PCR) revelou uma identidade de 97% (535/553 pb) com Theileria bicornis. A detecção de Theileria sp. in D. aurita nos desafia a aprofundar estudos sobre piroplasmosídeos marsupiais e avaliar os aspectos morfológicos dos achados e seu possível envolvimento com zoonoses.UEL2022-11-29info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPolymerase Chain Reaccionapplication/pdfhttps://ojs.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/semagrarias/article/view/4594010.5433/1679-0359.2022v43n6p2403Semina: Ciências Agrárias; Vol. 43 No. 6 (2022); 2403-2414Semina: Ciências Agrárias; v. 43 n. 6 (2022); 2403-24141679-03591676-546Xreponame:Semina.
