Bluetongue in India: a systematic review and meta-analysis with emphasis on diagnosis and seroprevalence

open access: yesVeterinary Quarterly, 2020
Bluetongue (BT) is an infectious viral disease which affects a wide range of ruminants and was first reported in India in 1964. In view of the absence of comprehensive information on the BT status in India, this study presents the seroprevalence on BT in

Faunistic inventory of the genus Culicoides (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) in Mauritius Island, Indian Ocean: Diversity and spatial distribution of species of veterinary interest Inventaire faunistique du genre Culicoides (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) sur l'île Maurice dans l'océan Indien: diversité et répartition spatiale des espèces présentant un intérêt vétérinaire

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Four Afrotropical Culicoides species are recorded in Mauritius with suspected or historically involvement in BTV and EHDV transmission. All species were distributed all over the island. While intra‐specific morphological variations were detected, genetic analyses did not reveal any cryptic diversity. Abstract Viruses transmitted by biting midge species

Intravenous Infection of Small Ruminants Suggests a Goat-Restricted Host Tropism and Weak Humoral Immune Response for an Atypical Bluetongue Virus Isolate

open access: yesViruses, 2023
Bluetongue virus (BTV) is the etiologic agent of bluetongue (BT), a viral WOAH-listed disease affecting wild and domestic ruminants, primarily sheep. The outermost capsid protein VP2, encoded by S2, is the virion’s most variable protein, and the ability ...

Shrubs and trees as natural insect protection for grazing animals in Switzerland and the alpine region: A systematic review of in vitro, in vivo and clinical trials Sträucher und Bäume als natürlicher Insektenschutz für Weidetiere in der Schweiz und im Alpenraum: Eine systematische Literaturübersicht über in vitro‐, in vivo‐ und klinische Studien

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Biting or irritating insects are a threat to the health and welfare of grazing animals. This systematic review reveals that several shrubs and bushes growing in the alpine area have insecticidal, insect‐repellent and/or attractant properties. The alder Alnus glutinosa, juniper Juniperus communis, spruce Picea abies and walnut Juglans regia are ...

An updated checklist of Culicoides Latreille, 1809 biting midges from the highlands of eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo Une liste mise à jour des moucherons piqueurs de Culicoides Latreille, 1809 des hautes terres de l'est de la République démocratique du Congo

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
The highlands of eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) are home to critically endangered eastern gorillas (Gorilla beringei). Climate change could increase the abundance and distribution of Culicoides‐borne diseases. We utilized morphological and molecular techniques to identify Culicoides spp.

Diprosopus dirrhinus (nasal duplication) in a female Holstein Friesian calf: Clinical findings, diagnostic imaging and surgical management

open access: yesVeterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 2, May 2026.
Abstract An 11‐week‐old Holstein Friesian heifer calf presented with a congenital nasal abnormality characterised by an additional, turbinate‐like structure located dorsally on the nasal bridge. Clinical examination of the calf revealed normal respiratory function, with the accessory structure producing mucoid discharge from blind‐ended cavities ...

Identification of the Genome Segments of Bluetongue Virus Type 26/Type 1 Reassortants Influencing Horizontal Transmission in a Mouse Model

open access: yesViruses, 2021
Bluetongue virus serotypes 1 to 24 are transmitted primarily by infected Culicoides midges, in which they also replicate. However, “atypical” BTV serotypes (BTV-25, -26, -27 and -28) have recently been identified that do not infect and replicate in adult

General practice veterinarians’ attitudes towards avian influenza: A COM‐B analysis of barriers to backyard poultry treatment

open access: yesVeterinary Record, Volume 198, Issue 6, Page e237-e247, 14/21 March 2026.
Abstract Background The recent expansion of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 to non‐avian species in the United States has intensified public health‐related concerns. In Great Britain, low veterinarian confidence in seeing and treating birds creates potential barriers to HPAI diagnosis and reporting.
