The host-range tdCE phenotype of Chandipura virus is determined by mutations in the polymerase gene [PDF]
The emerging arbovirus Chandipura virus (CV) has been implicated in epidemics of acute encephalitis in India with high mortality rates. The isolation of temperature-dependent host-range (tdCE) mutants, which are impaired in growth at 39 °C in chick ...

What are the vector species of the Oropouche virus?
Here, we review the timeline of Oropouche virus (OROV) detection in various hematophagous Diptera, from 1955 to date, including mosquitoes and midges. All vector competence experiments also are described. The results suggest that Culicoides are the primary vectors.

Late Therapy with an Interferon Stimulator in an Arbovirus Encephalitis in Mice
SummaryA number of different dose schedules of a potent interferon stimulator, polyinosinicδpolycytidylic acid, were compared in Semliki Forest virus infected mice. Daily treatment with 100 μg of InδCn intraperitoneally was more effective than any of the other dose schedules tested.

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 ...

Shifts in receptors during submergence of an encephalitic arbovirus
Western equine encephalitis virus (WEEV) is an arthropod-borne virus (arbovirus) that frequently caused major outbreaks of encephalitis in humans and horses in the early twentieth century, but the frequency of outbreaks has since decreased markedly, and ...

Stewardship of Molecular Diagnostics in Transplant Viral Infections
ABSTRACT The transplant environment requires special considerations when testing for viral infections as immunosuppression results in atypical infection profiles. Microbes otherwise considered commensals or causing mild disease can lead to severe infections in transplant environments. Therefore, guidelines tend to recommend broader microbial testing in
