The epidemiology of bluetongue in Malawi [PDF]

Epidemiology and Infection, 1988
SummaryA 4 year survey was undertaken in 1982–6 to examine the seasonal nature of bluetongue virus activity in Malawi. Bluetongue infection at Bwemba in Lilongwe district and Likasi in Mchinji district, both in the Central Region of Malawi, was detected by examining sera taken from calves at each site, at monthly intervals.

Vector competence of British Culicoides species for Bluetongue virus serotype 8 [PDF]

, 2009
The proportion of infected vectors which are able to transmit an arbovirus to a susceptible host has a significant impact on the epidemic potential of such a virus. Assessing vector competence is therefore crucial to evaluate accurately the risk posed by

Bluetongue Disease [PDF]

, 2019
Bluetongue (BT) is a noncontagious OIE-listed disease of domestic and wild ruminants caused by a virus (Bluetongue virus—BTV) of the Orbivirus genus within the family Reoviridae and transmitted by biting midges of the genus Culicoides. BT is a considerable socioeconomic concern and of major importance for the international trade of animals and animal ...

In situ structures of RNA-dependent RNA polymerase inside bluetongue virus before and after uncoating

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019
Significance Bluetongue virus (BTV) is a double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) virus that often causes significant economic damage to the livestock industry. The RNA-based genome transcription of BTV during infection depends on its RNA-dependent RNA polymerase ...

Did vaccination slow the spread of bluetongue in France? [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Vaccination is one of the most efficient ways to control the spread of infectious diseases. Simulations are now widely used to assess how vaccination can limit disease spread as well as mitigate morbidity or mortality in susceptible populations. However,
