Viral diversity and blood-feeding patterns of Afrotropical Culicoides biting midges (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae)

Frontiers in Microbiology
IntroductionCulicoides biting midges (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) are vectors of arboviral pathogens that primarily affect livestock represented by Schmallenberg virus (SBV), epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus (EHDV) and bluetongue virus (BTV).

Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza A (H5N1) Caused Mass Death Among Black‐Legged Kittiwakes (Rissa tridactyla) in Norway, 2023

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
In 2023, highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) heavily affected gulls in Europe. In July, a mass mortality event was reported in the black‐legged kittiwake (Rissa tridactyla) breeding colony at Ekkerøy in Northern Norway. The cause was confirmed to be infection with the HPAI H5N1 clade 2.3.4.4b virus, genotype EA‐2022‐BB. We describe the outbreak in

Epizootic Hemorrhagic Disease Virus Induces and Benefits from Cell Stress, Autophagy, and Apoptosis [PDF]

Journal of Virology, 2013
ABSTRACT The mode and timing of virally induced cell death hold the potential of regulating viral yield, viral transmission, and the severity of virally induced disease. Orbiviruses such as the epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus (EHDV) are nonenveloped and cytolytic.

Bluetongue Virus Serotype 3 Follow‐Up of the 2024 Outbreak in Two Belgian Zoos

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
In summer 2024, Western Europe experienced extensive outbreaks of bluetongue virus Serotype 3 (BTV‐3), a Culicoides‐borne orbivirus. Clinical disease was first detected in August 2024 in one of two Belgian zoos, predominantly affecting European bison (Bison bonasus) and American bison (Bison bison).
