Abstract
A total of 574 domestic ducks (Anas platyrhynchos f. domestica) were e xamined for haemagglutination-inhibiting (HI) antibody. The ducks were sampled in fishponds of southern Moravia. HI antibody was detected to all virus antigens used,with a variable frequency: Sindbis (SIN) - 0. 3 %, West-Nile (WN) - 11.3 %, tahyna (TAH) - 8.0 %, Calovo (CVO) - 2.1 %. Positive samples were verified in virus -neutralizing test.
