    Lung tissue of 156 rodents (genera Apodemus, Myodes, Microtus, and Muscardinus) from the Czech Republic, 29 rodents of the species Spalax ehrenbergi from Israel and 106 rodent specimens from Africa (genera Heliophobius, Mastomys, Acomys, Aethomys, Saccostomus, Tatera, Mus, Cryptomys, Dasymys, Dendromus, Grammomys, and Steatomys) were examined for presence of adiaspores of the fungal genus Emmonsia. In the Czech Republic, nine (5.8 %) animals revealed adiaspores of E. crescens. The positive samples were found in rodents sampled in three of the five Czech areas studied. Out of six species of the Czech rodents, three species were positive: Apodemus flavicollis, Myodes glareolus and Microtus agrestis. A. flavicollis was the most frequently infected species, whereas A. sylvaticus, Microtus subterraneus and Muscardinus avellanarius were negative. Adiaspores were recorded in five females and four males. Tissue samples of rodents from Africa and Israel were all negative.

    Byla vyšetřována plicní tkáň 156 hlodavců (rody Apodemus, Myodes, Microtus, Muscardinus) z České republiky, 29 hlodavců Spalax ehrenbergi z Izraele a 106 z Afriky (rody Heliophobius, Mastomys, Acomys, Aethomys, Saccostomus, Tatera, Mus, Cryptomys, Dasymys, Dendromus, Grammomys, Steatomys) na přítomnost adiaspor mikromycet rodu Emmonsia. V Česku bylo pozitivních 9 (5,8 %) zvířat, u nichž byly prokázány adiaspory druhu E. crescens.. Pozitivní vzorky byly zjištěny u hlodavců ve třech z pěti studovaných oblastí. Bylo vyšetřeno šest druhů hlodavců, tři druhy byly pozitivní: Apodemus flavicollis, Myodes glareolus a Microtus agrestis; největší prevalence infekce byla u druhu A. flavicollis. Druhy Apodemus sylvaticus, Microtus subterraneus a Muscardinus avellanarius byly negativní. Adiaspory byly zaznamenány u pěti samečků a čtyř samiček hlodavců. Vzorky tkáně hlodavců z Afriky a Izraele byly negativní.
