A metagenomic comparison of endemic viruses from broiler chickens with runting stunting syndrome and from normal birds [PDF]
, 2016 Runting-stunting syndrome (RSS) in broiler chickens is an enteric disease that causes significant economic losses to poultry producers worldwide due to elevated feed conversion ratios, decreased body weight during growth, and excessive culling.

The fecal viral flora of wild rodents.
PLoS Pathogens, 2011 The frequent interactions of rodents with humans make them a common source of zoonotic infections. To obtain an initial unbiased measure of the viral diversity in the enteric tract of wild rodents we sequenced partially purified, randomly amplified viral

Replicative intermediates of porcine circovirus in animal tissue cultured cells or in bacteria undergoing copy-release replication [PDF]
, 2012 Porcine circovirus (PCV) has been assumed to replicate its genome via the rolling-circle replication (RCR) mechanism because it encodes a Rep protein that contains several amino acid motifs commonly found in other RCR biological systems.

Parvovirus-derived endogenous viral elements in two South American rodent genomes [PDF]
, 2014 We describe endogenous viral elements (EVEs) derived from parvoviruses (family <i>Parvoviridae</i>) in the long-tailed chinchilla (<i>Chinchilla lanigera</i>) and degu (<i>Octodon degus</i>) genomes.

Viruses in saliva from sanctuary chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) in Republic of Congo and Uganda
PLoS ONE, 2023 Pathogen surveillance for great ape health monitoring has typically been performed on non-invasive samples, primarily feces, in wild apes and blood in sanctuary-housed apes. However, many important primate pathogens, including known zoonoses, are shed in

Viral DNA genomes in sera of farrowing sows with or without stillbirths.
PLoS ONE, 2020 A study was conducted to investigate the serum virome of sows with and without stillbirths after farrowing. Sera from sows with at least one stillbirth or with normal litters were collected immediately after farrowing.

Circovirus in Blood of a Febrile Horse with Hepatitis
Viruses, 2021 Circoviruses infect vertebrates where they can result in a wide range of disease signs or in asymptomatic infections. Using viral metagenomics we analyzed a pool of five sera from four healthy and one sick horse.

Strain-dependent porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) entry and replication in T-lymphoblasts [PDF]
, 2019 Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is the etiological agent of PCV2-associated diseases (PCVAD). PCV2 targets lymphoblasts, and pigs suffering from PCVAD display lymphocyte depletion in lymphoid tissues. PCV2 infection of lymphoblasts has not been studied.
