Aerosol and Contact Transmission Following Intranasal Infection of Mice with Japanese Encephalitis Virus

Viruses, 2019
The Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV), a causative agent of severe viral encephalitis in humans, has a biological cycle fluctuating between transmission in mosquitoes and avian species and amplification in pigs.

Lipid hijacking: A unifying theme in vector-borne diseases

eLife, 2020
Vector-borne illnesses comprise a significant portion of human maladies, representing 17% of global infections. Transmission of vector-borne pathogens to mammals primarily occurs by hematophagous arthropods.

Arthropods as potential vectors of African swine fever virus outbreaks in pig farms in the Republic of Korea

Veterinary Medicine and Science, 2021
The seasonality of African swine fever (ASF) in the summers and outbreaks in farms with high biosecurity levels suggest that the ASF virus (ASFV) may be transmitted by arthropod vectors.

Anticipating the species jump: surveillance for emerging viral threats. [PDF]

, 2012
Zoonotic disease surveillance is typically triggered after animal pathogens have already infected humans. Are there ways to identify high-risk viruses before they emerge in humans? If so, then how and where can identifications be made and by what methods?

Non-structural proteins of arthropod-borne bunyaviruses: roles and functions [PDF]

, 2013
Viruses within the Bunyaviridae family are tri-segmented, negative-stranded RNA viruses. The family includes several emerging and re-emerging viruses of humans, animals and plants, such as Rift Valley fever virus, Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus ...

Genetic Characterization of the Tick-Borne Orbiviruses [PDF]

, 2015
The International Committee for Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) recognizes four species of tick-borne orbiviruses (TBOs): Chenuda virus, Chobar Gorge virus, Wad Medani virus and Great Island virus (genus Orbivirus, family Reoviridae).

Reptile vector-borne diseases of zoonotic concern

International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2021
Reptile vector-borne diseases (RVBDs) of zoonotic concern are caused by bacteria, protozoa and viruses transmitted by arthropod vectors, which belong to the subclass Acarina (mites and ticks) and the order Diptera (mosquitoes, sand flies and tsetse flies)
