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

Emerging 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

Generation of Multiple Arbovirus-like Particles Using a Rapid Recombinant Vaccinia Virus Expression Platform

Pathogens, 2022
As demonstrated by the 2015 Zika virus outbreak in the Americas, emerging and re-emerging arboviruses are public health threats that warrant research investment for the development of effective prophylactics and therapeutics.

Serosurveillance and the first detection of Bourbon virus RNA in a wildlife host

bioRxiv
Bourbon virus (BRBV) is an emerging pathogen that can cause severe and fatal disease in humans. BRBV is vectored by Amblyomma americanum (lone star ticks), which are widely distributed across the central, southern, and eastern United States.

Pathogen Spillover to an Invasive Tick Species: First Detection of Bourbon Virus in <i>Haemaphysalis longicornis </i>in the United States

, 2022
Haemaphysalis longicornis (Neumann, 1901) (Acari: Ixodidae), the Asian longhorned tick, is an invasive tick species present in the USA since at least 2017 and has been detected in one-third of Virginia counties. While this species is associated with the transmission of multiple pathogens in its native geographical range of eastern Asia, little is known

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

Journal 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

Dermatological manifestations of tick-borne viral infections found in the United States

Virology Journal, 2022
Tick-borne diseases (TBDs) are bacterial, viral, and parasitic diseases transmitted by ticks. Viral TBDs have increased in prevalence over the last decade with many new pathogenic viruses being discovered.

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

Frontiers 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 ...

A Case of Illness Following a Bite by a Male Lone Star Tick (<i>Amblyomma americanum</i> Linnaeus) Infected With <i>Ehrlichia</i> sp. and <i>Rickettsia amblyommatis</i> in Connecticut, United States. [PDF]

Clin Case Rep
A case of local lymphadenopathy and a flu‐like illness in a man, following a bite by a male lone star tick infected with Ehrlichia sp. and Rickettsia amblyommatis. ABSTRACT The lone star tick (Amblyomma americanum Linnaeus) is a species commonly found in the southeastern U.S., but in recent years its populations have expanded northward, resulting in an

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

Molecular 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.
