“…Therefore, SARS-CoV-2 infection in these companion animals demonstrates their susceptibility under natural and experimental settings. Other farmed animals such as minks, when infected with SARS-CoV-2, may show respiratory and gastrointestinal signs with increased mortality ( 436 , 437 ). There is evidence that SARS-CoV-2 has evolved at the genetic level into a variant strain in minks in Denmark, and mink-to-mink and mink-to-human transmissions have been observed on farms of Denmark and the Netherlands, whereas ferrets have been reported to transmit the virus to other ferrets in an experimental study ( 432 , 437 ).…”

Coronaviruses are single-stranded RNA viruses that affect humans and a wide variety of animal species, including livestock, wild animals, birds, and pets. These viruses have an affinity for different tissues, such as those of the respiratory and gastrointestinal tract of most mammals and birds and the hepatic and nervous tissues of rodents and porcine. As coronaviruses target different host cell receptors and show divergence in the sequences and motifs of their structural and accessory proteins, they are classified into groups, which may explain the evolutionary relationship between them. The interspecies transmission, zoonotic potential, and ability to mutate at a higher rate and emerge into variants of concern highlight their importance in the medical and veterinary fields. The contribution of various factors that result in their evolution will provide better insight and may help to understand the complexity of coronaviruses in the face of pandemics. In this review, important aspects of coronaviruses infecting livestock, birds, and pets, in particular, their structure and genome organization having a bearing on evolutionary and zoonotic outcomes, have been discussed.

“…Son zamanlarda, Kuzey İtalya'da 919 evcil kedi ve köpek üzerinde yapılan bir çalışmada; PCR testleri pozitif olmadığı halde değerlendirilen köpeklerin % 3.3'ünde ve kedilerin ise % 5.8'inde SARS-CoV-2 ve anti-SARS-CoV-2 nötralize edici antikorların varlığı tespit edilmiştir (33). Slovenya' da gastrointestinal belirtileri görülen COVID-19 hastası ile temas halinde olan iki yaban gelinciğinde SARS-CoV-2 pozitif olarak tespit edilmiştir (25). Brezilya' da birlikte yaşadıkları hasta yakını COVID-19 ile enfekte olan 29 köpekten 9'unun ve 10 kediden 4'ünün SARS-CoV-2 ile enfekte veya seropozitif olduğu belirlenmiştir (3).…”
