Abstract: Duck Tembusu virus disease is an emerging viral infection caused by duck Tembusu virus (DTMUV), an infectious disease characterized by a severe decrease in egg production of laying ducks and neurological symptoms in ducklings or breeding ducks. Since its outbreak in 2010, DTMUV has brought huge economic losses to the duck breeding industry in China. In this paper, we review DTMUV in terms of pathogenesis, epidemiology, innate immune response, diagnosis and prevention and control of the virus to provide a scientific basis for the diagnosis and prevention of the disease in the future.

Key words: duck Tembusu virus(DTMUV), epidemiology, innate immune response, diagnosis and prevention
