Abstract EN
Schmallenberg disease, an ectoparasite borne disease, is one of the most important emerging disease that discovered recently and was first reported in Germany in 2011.
The disease affects animal industries through causing many clinical signs ranging from reduce milk production, weight loss to abortion and death of newborn animal.
To our knowledge this is considered the first preliminary study on the presence of circulating Schmallenberg virus in Iraqi Kurdistan.
In this research, only ELISA was used for detection of antibodies and antigens of the virus.
Serological study showed that out of 192 animals, 16.1% were tested positive.
There was not significantly different between geographical places (p>0.05).
However, this study showed that the incidence of abortion in sheep due to Schmallenberge virus was significantly different between geographical places (p>0.05).
The overall incidence of abortion in this study was nearly about 47%.
The highest incidence was observed in shexan with at 90%.
