Novel Recombinant Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease Virus 2 (RHDV2) is Circulating in China within 12 Months after Original RHDV2 Arrival. [PDF]
Transbound Emerg Dis, 2023 Rabbit hemorrhagic disease (RHD) causes lethal fulminant hepatitis in rabbits. Two different genotypes (GI.1 and GI.2) responsible for RHD are reported. GI.2 was first detected in France in 2010 and subsequently spread to other countries in Europe. In April 2020, GI.2 was detected in China.

Sustained Impact of RHDV2 on Wild Rabbit Populations across Australia Eight Years after Its Initial Detection. [PDF]
Viruses, 2023 Following the arrival of rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus 2 (RHDV2) in Australia, average rabbit population abundances were reduced by 60% between 2014 and 2018 based on monitoring data acquired from 18 sites across Australia. During this period, as the

An RT-qPCR Assay from Rectal Swabs for the Detection of Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease Virus 2 in Natural Cases. [PDF]
Transbound Emerg Dis, 2023 Rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus 2 (RHDV2 or Lagovirus europaeus GI.2) is spreading across North America. This has enabled submissions of lagomorphs for testing to veterinary diagnostic laboratories (VDLs). The liver is currently the gold‐standard sample type for testing by RT‐qPCR.

Specific Detection of RHDV GI.1 and GI.2 by RT-LAMP-CRISPR/Cas12a Platform. [PDF]
Transbound Emerg DisRabbit hemorrhagic disease is a highly contagious and acute fatal disease caused by rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV). The first outbreak of RHDV2 in 2020 has posed a serious threat to the rabbit breeding industry in China. An effective and specific detection strategy for RHDV GI.1 (RHDV1) and GI.2 (RHDV2) is urgently needed.
