BackgroundUntil recently hantaviruses were poorly studied inSoutheast Asian countries. To better understand theecology of hantaviruses in Southeast Asia, we conducteda large scale serological survey of rodent species in sev-eral locations in Cambodia, Laos and Thailand. Recentarticles indicated that the dilution effect (wherebypathogen prevalence increases with decreasing biodiver-sity) applied to some American hantavirus species.Therefore we also analyzed our data to establish if anyrelationship existed between hantavirus seroprevalenceand rodent species diversity.MethodsSmall mammals were live-trapped in different habitattypes within a 20 km
