A Rapid Field‐Deployable Reverse Transcription‐Insulated Isothermal Polymerase Chain Reaction Assay for Sensitive and Specific Detection of Bluetongue Virus

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, 2017
Bluetongue is a non-contagious, haemorrhagic, Culicoides-borne disease of ruminants. The causative agent, bluetongue virus (BTV), is a member of the Orbivirus genus of the Reoviridae family. So far, 26 BTV serotypes have been identified worldwide.

Significant Impact of Schmallenberg Virus in Three Ruminant Farms: A Laboratory Experience

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine International, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Schmallenberg virus (SBV) is endemic in Europe and other parts of the world and represents an underestimated and underdiagnosed cause of abortion and economic losses for livestock farms. In the present study, we evaluated SBV’s impact on three ruminant farms, in particular, two dairy cattle farms with reproductive problems (including abortions ...

Bluetongue virus outer-capsid protein VP2 expressed in Nicotiana benthamiana raises neutralising antibodies and a protective immune response in IFNAR −/− mice

open access: yesVaccine: X, 2019
Bluetongue is a severe, economically important disease of ruminants that is widely distributed in tropical and temperate regions around the world. It is associated with major production losses, restrictions of animal movements and trade, as well as costs

Landscape of exposure: Metapopulation dynamics and local environment structure pathogen exposure in desert bighorn sheep

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Dynamics of infectious disease in natural populations result from processes across scales, from host characteristics shaping exposure risk and susceptibility, to local environmental conditions driving vector populations, to the structure of metapopulation networks shaping transmission of pathogens across the landscape.

Bluetongue disease in small ruminants in south western Ethiopia: cross-sectional sero-epidemiological study

open access: yesBMC Research Notes, 2018
Objective The status of bluetongue disease, vectors for transmission of the disease and the serotypes involved are not clearly known in Ethiopia. This sero-epidemiological study was conducted to determine the seroprevalence and associated risk factors of

Establishment of a bluetongue virus infection model in mice that are deficient in the alpha/beta interferon receptor. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
Bluetongue (BT) is a noncontagious, insect-transmitted disease of ruminants caused by the bluetongue virus (BTV). A laboratory animal model would greatly facilitate the studies of pathogenesis, immune response and vaccination against BTV. Herein, we show

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 ...
