First report of GI.1aP-GI.2 recombinants of rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus in domestic rabbits in China. [PDF]
The rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus 2 (RHDV2 or GI.2) is a highly contagious agent leading to lethal disease in rabbits. It frequently recombines with other Lagovirus genus, generating epidemical variants with high pathogenicity. In this study, twenty-two liver samples tested positive for GI.2 VP60 gene, were collected in rabbit farms from several ...

Apoptosis activation during Lagovirus europaeus/GI.2 infection in rabbits. [PDF]
Rabbit Haemorrhagic Disease (RHD) is a severe disease caused by Lagovirus europaeus/GI.1 and GI.2. Immunological processes such as apoptosis are important factors involved in the pathogenesis of Rabbit Haemorrhagic Disease (RHD). The process of programmed cell death has been quite well characterized in infection with GI.1 strains, but apoptosis in ...

Detection of a New Emerging Strain of Rabbit Haemorrhagic Disease Virus 2 (GI.2) in China. [PDF]
Abstract Introduction In May 2020, an outbreak of rabbit haemorrhagic disease 2 (RHD2) caused by the rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus 2 (RHDV2, GI.2) occurred in Sichuan, China. The acute onset and short disease course resulted in rabbit mortality as high as 42.86%.

The pathogenicity comparison of Lagovirus europaeus GI.1 and GI.2 strains in China by using relative quantitative assay. [PDF]
AbstractLagovirus europaeus GI.1 belongs to Lagovirus in the Caliciviridae family. GI.1 causes an acute, septic, and highly lethal disease in rabbits. Lagovirus europaeus GI.2, a new variant of GI.1, has caused explosive mortality in rabbits of all ages in Sichuan Province, China.

Multiple Introductions of Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease Virus Lagovirus europaeus/GI.2 in Africa. [PDF]
Rabbit hemorrhagic disease (RHD) causes high mortality and morbidity in European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus). In Africa, the presence of the causative agent, the rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV), was first confirmed in 1992 (genotype Lagovirus europaeus/GI.1).

The potential role of scavenging flies as mechanical vectors of Lagovirus europaeus/GI.2. [PDF]
AbstractThe European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) populations of the Iberian Peninsula have been severely affected by the emergence of the rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) Lagovirus europaeus/GI.2 (RHDV2/b). Bushflies and blowflies (Muscidae and Calliphoridae families, respectively) are important RHDV vectors in Oceania, but their ...

Recombination at the emergence of the pathogenic rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus Lagovirus europaeus/GI.2. [PDF]
AbstractRabbit haemorrhagic disease is a viral disease that emerged in the 1980s and causes high mortality and morbidity in the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus). In 2010, a new genotype of the rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus emerged and replaced the former circulating Lagovirus europaeus/GI.1 strains.

Co-circulation of GI.1 and GI.2 genotypes of rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus in Egypt. [PDF]
Recently, Egypt has experienced an increased incidence of rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) infection even among vaccinated rabbits. The present study estimates the emergence of RHDV in vaccinated (n = 10) and unvaccinated (n = 8) domestic rabbitries in Beheira and Kafr El-Sheikh provinces, Egypt, during the period 2018-2020.

Human sapovirus GI.2 and GI.3 from children with acute gastroenteritis in northern Brazil. [PDF]
Human sapoviruses (HSaV) are considered important causative agents of acute gastroenteritis in humans worldwide. However, knowledge of the genetic characteristics of the whole genome of HSaV in Brazil is limited. Here we report the complete genome sequences of six HSaVs GI.2 and two GI.3 strains obtained from children with acute gastroenteritis in the ...
