Wild animals, such as rodents seem to be competent reservoir of bacteria-borne zoonotic diseases which disseminate in human. We investigated the presence of E. coli, Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC), and Salmonella in the feces of six category wild rodent species (Apodemus agrarius, A. peninsulae, A. sylvaticus, Micromys minutus, Myodes regulus, and R. norvegicus) captured from different agricultural regions in South Korea. Among them, A. agrarius, which account for 65% of total (N = 52) individuals, are most widely distributed and abundant in various agroecosystems in South Korea. The bacterial identification was performed by cultural and molecular methods. In cultural method, the fecal cultures from 26 individuals formed colonies on E. coli-selective EMB agar media. Of them, the fecal cultures from 18 individuals also produced colonies on the Shiga toxin-producing E. coli-selective CT-SMAC agar media as well as the EMB agar media. In molecular method, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was carried out to detect two virulence genes (stx1 and stx2) of isolated E. coli. The amplified dataset of stx1 and stx2 genes of E. coli were sequenced. In this manuscript, E. coli and STEC were detected but there were no Salmonella species. The wild rodents' data would provide important information on reservoirs of those pathogenic bacteria. (c) 2020 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Inc.
