Exploring the Astrovirome of Shellfish Matrices Using Nanopore Sequencing

Veterinary Sciences, 2023
Astroviruses are important human enteric pathogens transmissible with contaminated food and water. Astroviruses have also been identified in mammals, birds, lower vertebrates and invertebrates. The genetic diversity of human and animal astroviruses poses

Prevalence, Genetics, and Evolution of Porcine Astrovirus 3 in China. [PDF]

Transbound Emerg Dis
Porcine astrovirus 3 (PAstV3) is an emerging virus associated with porcine polioencephalomyelitis outbreaks and is frequently detected in the feces of both healthy and diarrheal pigs. Despite its significance, the prevalence, genetic characteristics, and evolutionary features of PAstV3 in China remain poorly understood.

Experimental Porcine Astrovirus 4-Associated Tracheitis and Bronchitis in Pigs. [PDF]

Transbound Emerg Dis
Porcine astrovirus 4 (PoAstV4) is an emerging pathogen that has previously been associated with respiratory disease in piglets. The objective of this study was to inoculate naïve piglets with PoAstV4 and characterize the host–pathogen interaction and pathological lesions.

Molecular Identification of Enteric Viruses in Domestic Animals in Northeastern Gabon, Central Africa

Animals, 2023
Astroviruses (AstVs), enteroviruses (EVs), and caliciviruses (CaVs) infect several vertebrate taxa. Transmitted through the fecal–oral route, these enteric viruses are highly resistant and can survive in the environment, thereby increasing their zoonotic

Detection of novel astroviruses in urban brown rats and previously known astroviruses in humans [PDF]

, 2010
Several novel astroviruses have been recently discovered in humans and in other animals. Here, we report results from our surveillance of astroviruses in human and rodent faecal samples in Hong Kong.

Influence of age and body condition on astrovirus infection of bats in Singapore: An evolutionary and epidemiological analysis

One Health, 2017
Bats are unique mammals that are reservoirs of high levels of virus diversity. Although several of these viruses are zoonotic, the majority are not. Astroviruses, transmitted fecal-orally, are commonly detected in a wide diversity of bat species, are ...
