Co-infecting Reptarenaviruses Can Be Vertically Transmitted in Boa Constrictor [PDF]
, 2017 Boid inclusion body disease (BIBD) is an often fatal disease affecting mainly constrictor snakes. BIBD has been associated with infection, and more recently with coinfection, by various reptarenavirus species (family Arenaviridae). Thus far BIBD has only

Arenavirus Quasispecies and Their Biological Implications [PDF]
, 2015 The family Arenaviridae currently comprises over 20 viral species, each of them associated with a main rodent species as the natural reservoir and in one case possibly phyllostomid bats. Moreover, recent findings have documented a divergent group of arenaviruses in captive alethinophidian snakes.

Reverse Genetics Approaches to Control Arenavirus [PDF]
, 2016 Several arenavirus cause hemorrhagic fever disease in humans and pose a significant public health problem in their endemic regions. To date, no licensed vaccines are available to combat human arenavirus infections, and anti-arenaviral drug therapy is limited to an off-label use of ribavirin that is only partially effective.

Transcriptomic Signatures of Tacaribe Virus-Infected Jamaican Fruit Bats
mSphere, 2017 Tacaribe virus (TCRV) is a mammalian arenavirus that was first isolated from artibeus bats in the 1950s. Subsequent experimental infection of Jamaican fruit bats (Artibeus jamaicensis) caused a disease similar to that of naturally infected bats. Although
