Özet

Bovine ephemeral fever virus (BEFV) infection occurs seasonally in many tropical and subtropical regions of Africa, Asia (including the Middle East), and Australia while it is exotic in Europe. In this study, the epidemiology of BEFV infection in Turkey that bridges southeastern Europe and Asia, geographically, was investigated according to the comparison of the nucleotide sequences of the virus caused the last epidemic in 2020 with those of the strains previously detected in Turkey as well as BEFV strains from other countries. In the phylogenetic analysis, based on an alignment of full-length G gene sequences, BEFVs from epidemic-2020 were located in Middle Eastern lineage and appear to represent most closely related BEFVs from India-2018 and 2019. The findings will contribute to a better understanding of BEFV epidemiology in Turkey.
