dc.description.abstractA serosurvey was conducted in an agricultural village in South India to find out the seroprevalence among agricultural workers, domestic animals and field rats (Rattus norvegicus). The positive seroprevalence among cattle, sheep, goat in field rats, and in agricultural workers were 61.5%,56.3% 75%,52.9% and 72.5% respectively. The human control group had only 27.3% seroreactors. Pomona predominated in sheep and field rats, where as Autumnalis predominated among agricultural workers. Cattle and goat had equal distribution of antibodies to Autumnalis and Pomona. Among human controls, Pomona was the predominant group, followed by Icterohaemorrhagiae. Though Pomona had higher prevalence among field rats, the isolate made was only Javanica. Human infections due to Autumnalis, Canicola and Pomona could have been from domestic animals and field rats.en_US
