A serological survey of ruminant livestock in Kazakhstan during post-Soviet transitions in farming and disease control [PDF]
The results of a serological survey of livestock in Kazakhstan, carried out in 1997–1998, are reported. Serum samples from 958 animals (cattle, sheep and goats) were tested for antibodies to foot and mouth disease (FMD), bluetongue (BT), epizootic ...

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

Monitoring of Putative Vectors of Bluetongue Virus Serotype 8, Germany
To identify the vectors of bluetongue virus (BTV) in Germany, we monitored Culicoides spp. biting midges during April 2007–May 2008. Molecular characterization of batches of midges that tested positive for BTV suggests C.

Virus and host factors affecting the clinical outcome of bluetongue virus infection [PDF]
Bluetongue is a major infectious disease of ruminants caused by bluetongue virus (BTV), an arbovirus transmitted by Culicoides. Here, we assessed virus and host factors influencing the clinical outcome of BTV infection using a single experimental ...
