Detection of avian, murine, bovine, shrew, and bat coronaviruses in wild mammals from Mexico [PDF]
Coronaviruses infect a wide range of animal and human hosts. Some human coronaviruses, such as SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV, and SARS-CoV-2, originated in animals, with bats often serving as ancestral hosts.

Transcriptome Analysis in Air–Liquid Interface Porcine Respiratory Epithelial Cell Cultures Reveals That the Betacoronavirus Porcine Encephalomyelitis Hemagglutinating Virus Induces a Robust Interferon Response to Infection [PDF]
Porcine hemagglutinating encephalomyelitis virus (PHEV) replicates in the upper respiratory tract and tonsils of pigs. Using an air–liquid interface porcine respiratory epithelial cells (ALI-PRECs) culture system, we demonstrated that PHEV disrupts ...
