We hypothesized that wetland birds could be the source of the infection. Therefore, a prevalence study on trichomonads was performed by analysing cloaca swabs of 526 birds belonging to 13 species of wetland birds. The number of birds sampled ranged from 1 to 275 per species. Birds were sampled at 15 locations in the Netherlands. DNA extracted from the cloaca swabs was subjected to nested PCR using trichomonad-specific primers targeting the internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS1)–5.8S rRNA–ITS2 region followed by cloning and sequencing. In nine bird species, trichomonads were detected; the overall prevalence was 9% (47/526), while the prevalence in the five species for which a substantial number of birds were examined (at least 39 per species) ranged from 4% to 24%. Three trichomonad species were found: T. gallinarum, Trichomonas tenax and Simplicimonas sp. of which T. gallinarum dominated. The virulent T. gallinarum strain 13/16632 was not detected, but closely related strains were. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that all T. gallinarum isolates belonged to two clusters within lineage 15 of Tetratrichomonas lineages. All T. tenax isolates were identical and clustered with reference strain H95, while Simplicimonas sp. isolates showed large genetic diversity. Some isolates may represent a new species of the genus Simplicimonas. We conclude that trichomonads are widespread amongst wetland birds, raising the question, amongst others, of their relevance for commercial poultry.Lire moins >
