“Boid inclusion body disease”: het enigma ontrafeld?

open access: yesVlaams Diergeneeskundig Tijdschrift, 2019
“Boid inclusion body disease” (BIBD) is een wereldwijd voorkomende aandoening bij boa’s en pythons. De exacte oorzaak van de aandoening bleef gedurende lange tijd onopgehelderd. Recent werd met behulp van hedendaagse diagnostische methoden en experimentele studies overtuigend bewijs geleverd dat reptarenavirussen het oorzakelijk agens zijn van BIBD. In

Detection of novel divergent arenaviruses in boid snakes with inclusion body disease in The Netherlands

open access: yesJournal of General Virology, 2013
Arenaviruses are bi-segmented negative-stranded RNA viruses, which were until recently only detected in rodents and humans. Now highly divergent arenaviruses have been identified in boid snakes with inclusion body disease (IBD). Here, we describe the identification of a new species and variants of the highly divergent arenaviruses, which were detected ...

Viruses in reptiles [PDF]

open access: yesVeterinary Research, 2011
The etiology of reptilian viral diseases can be attributed to a wide range of viruses occurring across different genera and families. Thirty to forty years ago, studies of viruses in reptiles focused mainly on the zoonotic potential of arboviruses in ...

Fission–fusion dynamics in the social networks of a North American pitviper

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2023., 2023
Western diamondback rattlesnakes (Crotalus atrox) exhibit modular networks centered on reproductive females and stemming from fission/fusion dynamics related to annual cycles and communal denning. Abstract Many animal species exist in fission–fusion societies, where the size and composition of conspecific groups change spatially and temporally. To help
