Molecular, serological and in vitro culture-based characterization of Bourbon virus, a newly described human pathogen of the genus Thogotovirus. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Clin Virol, 2015
In June of 2014, a previously healthy man from Kansas with a recent history of tick exposure died from complications related to an illness marked by fever, thrombocytopenia and leukopenia. An isolate was derived from the blood of this patient during the course of diagnostic testing.

Surveillance for Tick-Borne Viruses Near the Location of a Fatal Human Case of Bourbon Virus (Family Orthomyxoviridae: Genus Thogotovirus) in Eastern Kansas, 2015 [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Medical Entomology, 2018
Bourbon virus (Family Orthomyxoviridae: Genus Thogotovirus) was first isolated from a human case-patient residing in Bourbon County, Kansas, who subsequently died. Before becoming ill in late spring of 2014, the patient reported several tick bites. In response, we initiated tick surveillance in Bourbon County and adjacent southern Linn County during ...

Widespread Circulation of Tick-Borne Viruses in Virginia—Evidence of Exposure to Heartland, Bourbon, and Powassan Viruses in Wildlife and Livestock [PDF]

open access: yesMicroorganisms
Emerging tick-borne viruses such as Powassan virus (POWV), Bourbon virus (BRBV), and Heartland virus (HRTV), whilst rare, can cause severe health problems in humans.

A novel accessory gene product of tick-borne Dhori-Orthomyxovirus, encoded by overlooked spliced transcripts of RNA segment 6 [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology
Dhori virus (DHOV) (Orthomyxoviridae, genus: Thogotovirus) is a tick-borne virus with a segmented, negative-sense RNA genome. Thogotoviruses can be divided into two clades, Thogoto-like and Dhori-like viruses, which differ in their coding strategy of the

Characterization of a novel thogotovirus isolated from Amblyomma testudinarium ticks in Ehime, Japan: A significant phylogenetic relationship to Bourbon virus

open access: yesVirus Research, 2018
The genus Thogotovirus, as represented by Thogoto virus and Dhori virus, comprises a group of arthropod-borne viruses, most members of which are transmitted by ticks. Here we report the genetic and biological characterization of a new thogotovirus, designated Oz virus (OZV), isolated from the hard tick Amblyomma testudinarium in Ehime, Japan.

Geographical distribution and pathogenesis of ticks and tick-borne viral diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Ticks are obligatory hematophagous arthropods that harbor and transmit infectious pathogens to humans and animals. Tick species belonging to Amblyomma, Ixodes, Dermacentor, and Hyalomma genera may transmit certain viruses such as Bourbon virus (BRBV ...

Genetic composition and diversity of Arabica coffee in the crop’s centre of origin and its impact on four major fungal diseases

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 32, Issue 10, Page 2484-2503, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Conventional wisdom states that genetic variation reduces disease levels in plant populations. Nevertheless, crop species have been subject to a gradual loss of genetic variation through selection for specific traits during breeding, thereby increasing their vulnerability to biotic stresses such as pathogens.

TO FLY THE PLANE: LANGUAGE GAMES, HISTORICAL NARRATIVES, AND EMOTIONS

open access: yesHistory and Theory, Volume 62, Issue 1, Page 30-61, March 2023., 2023
ABSTRACT The common Western distinction between reason and emotion (which is not found outside Western‐influenced traditions) tends to obscure an important distinction between two kinds of thinking: logical and mathematical reasoning, on the one hand, and, on the other hand, what is sometimes called “situational awareness,” a kind of thinking that ...

Heartland Virus in Humans and Ticks, Illinois, USA, 2018–2019

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2020
In 2018, Heartland disease virus infected 2 persons in Illinois, USA. In 2019, ticks were collected at potential tick bite exposure locations and tested for Heartland and Bourbon viruses. A Heartland virus–positive pool of adult male Amblyomma americanum
