Date Palm and Camel Milk as Sustainable and Resilient Food Sources to Fulfill the UN's SDGs (Goals 2 and 12): A Review

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 4, Issue 4, December 2025.
ABSTRACT An increasing global population and harsh climate conditions are challenging most crops and contribute to threats of food insecurity. It is crucial to identify food sources that are sustainable and resilient. This review aims to provide insights into how date palm and camels can act as two major resilient and sustainable food sources to meet ...

Epidemiology of Bluetongue Virus Serotype 8, Germany

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2009
In Germany, bluetongue disease had not been reported before 2006. During August 2006–August 2008, >24,000 bluetongue virus serotype 8 infections were reported, most (20,635) in 2007. In 2006 and 2007, respectively, case-fatality rates were 6.4% and 13.1%

Bluetongue: Indian perspective

open access: yesActa virologica, 2015
Bluetongue (BT) is an insect borne (Culicoides) viral disease of small ruminants in India. While seroprevalence for BT is observed mostly in domestic and wild ruminant animals, the clinical form of disease and severe mortality is observed in sheep. Since the first report of BT in 1960s the country became endemic for the disease and most of the BT virus

Diversity of Transmission Outcomes Following Co-Infection of Sheep with Strains of Bluetongue Virus Serotype 1 and 8

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2020
Bluetongue virus (BTV) causes an economically important disease, bluetongue (BT), in susceptible ruminants and is transmitted primarily by species of Culicoides biting midges (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae).

Measuring between-farm variation in Culicoides (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) density, the vectors of bluetongue virus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Culicoides midges are ubiquitous on farms in the UK, but little research has explored their abundance, an important determinant of disease risk. Models to explain and predict variation in their abundance are needed for effective targeting of control ...

Discovery of a new inland population of Leptoconops noei in Italy with sequencing of the first complete mitochondrial genome for the genus

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 39, Issue 4, Page 817-828, December 2025.
The genus Leptoconops is poorly investigated, despite its ecological relevance and biting nuisance. The studies in Italy focused only on the coastal areas. Inland populations of Leptoconops noei are documented for the first time in Italy. We record their presence in an area covering Siena district, Tuscany region, in an atypical environment for the ...

In vitro reconstitution of Bluetongue virus infectious cores.

open access: yes, 2011
Bluetongue virus (BTV) is a vector-borne, nonenveloped icosahedral particle that is organized in two capsids, an outer capsid of two proteins, VP2 and VP5, and an inner capsid (or core) composed of two major proteins, VP7 and VP3, in two layers.
