Non‐A to E hepatitis in children: Detecting a novel viral epidemic during the COVID‐19 pandemic
During the COVID‐19 pandemic, two further novel viral epidemics were described in 2022, monkeypox virus infections in men having sex with men and non‐A to E hepatitis in children.

Goose Parvovirus—An Autonomous Member of the Dependovirus Genus?
Goose parvovirus is the etiological agent of Derzsy's disease, a fatal hepatitis of young geese. The virus infects geese and Muscovy ducks and can be propagated in the laboratory in primary embryonic goose fibroblasts. To date the virus has only been classified by morphological, biochemical, and culture characteristics as an autonomous parvovirus.

Coinfection of a Bearded Dragon, Pogona vitticeps , with Adenovirus- and Dependovirus-like Viruses [PDF]
Four neonate bearded dragons, Pogona vitticeps, from two collections became ill and died. Multiple tissues were collected and processed for light microscopy. In hematoxylin and eosin-stained sections of liver of one lizard, numerous basophilic intranuclear inclusions were observed.

Functional roles of the membrane-associated AAV protein MAAP
With a limited coding capacity of 4.7 kb, adeno-associated virus (AAV) genome has evolved over-lapping genes to maximise the usage of its genome. An example is the recently found ORF in the cap gene, encoding membrane-associated accessory protein (MAAP),

An Outbreak of Adenoviral Infection in Inland Bearded Dragons ( Pogona Vitticeps ) Coinfected with Dependovirus and Coccidial Protozoa ( Isospora Sp.) [PDF]
Thirty of 200 (15%) hatchling inland bearded dragons were found dead after a short period (48 hours) of weakness and lethargy. The most common clinical signs were head tilt and circling. Six bearded dragons with neurological signs were euthanized, and postmortem examination revealed no gross abnormalities.

Astrovirus Outbreak in an Animal Shelter Associated With Feline Vomiting
An outbreak of cat vomiting was observed in an animal shelter. Testing for known enteric feline pathogens did not identify a causative agent. Viral metagenomics on four mini pools of feces from cases and controls housed in the same area revealed the ...

A parvovirus isolated from royal python (Python regius) is a member of the genus Dependovirus
Parvoviruses were isolated from Python regius and Boa constrictor snakes and propagated in viper heart (VH-2) and iguana heart (IgH-2) cells. The full-length genome of a snake parvovirus was cloned and both strands were sequenced. The organization of the 4432-nt-long genome was found to be typical of parvoviruses.

Novel Mutant AAV2 Rep Proteins Support AAV2 Replication without Blocking HSV-1 Helpervirus Replication. [PDF]
As their names imply, parvoviruses of the genus Dependovirus rely for their efficient replication on the concurrent presence of a helpervirus, such as herpesvirus, adenovirus, or papilloma virus.
