Vertebrate Host Susceptibility to Heartland Virus
Heartland virus (HRTV) is a recently described phlebovirus initially isolated in 2009 from 2 humans who had leukopenia and thrombocytopenia. Serologic assessment of domestic and wild animal populations near the residence of 1 of these persons showed high

Heartland Virus Epidemiology, Vector Association, and Disease Potential
First identified in two Missouri farmers exhibiting low white-blood-cell and platelet counts in 2009, Heartland virus (HRTV) is genetically closely related to severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus (SFTSV), a tick-borne phlebovirus producing ...

Characterisation of putative novel tick viruses and zoonotic risk prediction
Tick‐borne viruses remain a substantial zoonotic risk worldwide, so knowledge of the diversity of tick viruses has potential health consequences. Through data mining and bioinformatic analyses of more than 37,800 public meta‐genomic and ‐transcriptomic data sets, we found five putative novel Alphatetra‐like viruses, four putative novel Orthomyxo‐like ...
