A preliminary study of viral metagenomics of French bat species in contact with humans: identification of new mammalian viruses. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The prediction of viral zoonosis epidemics has become a major public health issue. A profound understanding of the viral population in key animal species acting as reservoirs represents an important step towards this goal.

Heparan sulfate proteoglycan is an important attachment factor for cell entry of Akabane and Schmallenberg viruses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Akabane (AKAV) and Schmallenberg (SBV) viruses are Orthobunyavirus transmitted by arthropod vectors with a broad cellular tropism in vitro as well as in vivo Both AKAV and SBV cause arthrogryposis-hydranencephaly syndrome in ruminants.

Functional analysis of the Bunyamwera orthobunyavirus Gc glycoprotein [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The virion glycoproteins Gn and Gc of Bunyamwera orthobunyavirus (family Bunyaviridae) are encoded by the M RNA genome segment and have roles in both viral attachment and membrane fusion.

C6/36 Aedes albopictus cells have a dysfunctional antiviral RNA interference response. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2010
Mosquitoes rely on RNA interference (RNAi) as their primary defense against viral infections. To this end, the combination of RNAi and invertebrate cell culture systems has become an invaluable tool in studying virus-vector interactions.

Shrubs and trees as natural insect protection for grazing animals in Switzerland and the alpine region: A systematic review of in vitro, in vivo and clinical trials Sträucher und Bäume als natürlicher Insektenschutz für Weidetiere in der Schweiz und im Alpenraum: Eine systematische Literaturübersicht über in vitro‐, in vivo‐ und klinische Studien

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Biting or irritating insects are a threat to the health and welfare of grazing animals. This systematic review reveals that several shrubs and bushes growing in the alpine area have insecticidal, insect‐repellent and/or attractant properties. The alder Alnus glutinosa, juniper Juniperus communis, spruce Picea abies and walnut Juglans regia are ...

Transcriptome markers of viral persistence in naturally-infected Andes Hantavirus (Bunyaviridae) seropositive rice rats

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Molecular & Clinical Medicine, 2015
The long-tailed pygmy rice rat ( Oligoryzomys longicaudatus ) is the reservoir host of Andes (ANDV) and Oran hantaviruses ( Bunyaviridae ). To examine transcriptome features of persistently infected rice rats, spleens from ANDV sero-positive wild-caught rice rats were assessed.

Toward Dual‐Function Nanoparticle Platforms for Arboviral Diagnostics and Vaccines: Advances, Challenges, and Future Prospects

open access: yesNano Select, Volume 7, Issue 2, February 2026.
This review explores nanoparticle (NP)‐based biosensors and nanovaccine platforms for arboviral infections, highlighting their design, performance, and translational potential. By comparing case studies across viruses, it identifies gold‐standard nanomaterials such as gold NPs (AuNPs), zinc oxide NPs (ZnONPs), molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) nanocomposites,

Schmallenberg virus: emergence of an Orthobunyavirus among ruminants in Western Europe [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Recently, a novel virus has been identified among ruminants in Western Europe. This virus, the so-called Schmallenberg virus, belongs to the family Bunyaviridae, genus Orthobunyavirus, serogroup Simbu and is closely related to Akabane, Aino and Shamonda ...

Mapping of transcription termination within the S segment of SFTS phlebovirus facilitated the generation of NSs-deletant viruses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
SFTS phlebovirus (severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus; SFTSV) is an emerging tick-borne bunyavirus that was first reported in China in 2009. Here we report the generation of a recombinant SFTSV (rHB29NSsKO) that cannot express the viral non-
