Investigation of Yersinia spp. and Aeromonas hydrophila prevalences in Northern Bald Ibis (Geronticus eremita)
Abstract
Northern Bald Ibis (Geronticus eremita) is in the Red List of Threatened Species published by International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources (IUCN). The purpose of this study was to determine the frequency of Aeromonas hydrophila and Yersinia species in feces of Northern Bald Ibis. In the study, 29 (35.3%) A. hydrophila and 22 (26.8%) Yersinia species were isolated from stool samples. In isolated Yersinia species, 8 (9.7%) Y. enterocolitica, 5 (6%) Yersinia spp, 4 (4.8%) Y. frederiksenii, 3 (3.6%) Y. intermedia and 2 (2.4%) Y. kristensenii were identified. In conclusion, Yersinia spp. and A. hydrophila have been found at high rates in Northern Bald Ibis stool

Abstract
Kelaynaklar (Geronticus eremita), Uluslararası Doğa ve Doğal Kaynakları Koruma Birliği tarafından yayınlanan kırmızı listede, türleri tehdit altında olan kuşlar olarak bildirilmiştir. Bu çalışmada, kelaynak dışkılarından Aeromonas hydrophila ve Yersinia türlerinin sıklığının araştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Çalışmada, 29 (%35.3) A. hydrophila ve 22 (%26.8) Yersinia türü izole edilmiştir. Yersinia türlerinin 8 (%9.7)’i Y. enterocolitica, 5 (%6)’i Yersinia spp., 4 (%4.8)’ü Y. frederiksenii, 3 (%3.6)’ü Y. intermedia ve 2 (%2.4)’si Y. kristensenii olarak identifiye edilmiştir. Sonuç olarak, kelaynak dışkılarından yüksek oranda Yersinia spp. ve A. hydrophila olduğu saptanmıştır
