Leporids’ Emerging Diseases as a Threat to Biodiversity [PDF]

, 2023
Wild leporids have been gaining interest and prominence in the scientific and social community worldwide. While endangered of extinction in its native territory, the Iberian Peninsula, where it has a key role in the Mediterranean ecosystems, the European

Biological cryo‐electron microscopy in China

Protein Science, Volume 26, Issue 1, Page 16-31, January 2017., 2017
Abstract Cryo‐electron microscopy (cryo‐EM) plays an increasingly more important role in structural biology. With the construction of an arm of the Chinese National Protein Science Facility at Tsinghua University, biological cryo‐EM has entered a phase of rapid development in China.

RHDV2 outbreak reduces survival and juvenile recruitment, causing European rabbit population collapse

Ecosphere
Infectious diseases can cause considerable mortality in vertebrate populations, especially when a new pathogen emerges. Quantifying the impact of diseases on wild populations and dissecting the underlying mechanisms requires longitudinal individual ...

Calicivirus from Novel Recovirus Genogroup in Human Diarrhea, Bangladesh [PDF]

, 2012
To identify unknown human viruses in the enteric tract, we examined 105 stool specimens from patients with diarrhea in Bangladesh. A novel calicivirus was identified in a sample from 1 patient and subsequently found in samples from 5 other patients ...

Modeling the response of an endangered rabbit population to RHDV2 and vaccination

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 6, Issue 2, February 2024.
We developed a model of RHDV2 transmission dynamics and riparian brush rabbit population dynamics to evaluate the potential effectiveness of a vaccination strategy for this population. The model includes the potential effects of nontarget rabbit species as carriers and reservoirs of the disease, as well as environmental transmission.

Rabbit haemorrhagic disease: virus persistence and adaptation in Australia

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 7, Issue 9, Page 1056-1067, November 2014., 2014
Abstract In Australia, the rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) has been used since 1996 to reduce numbers of introduced European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) which have a devastating impact on the native Australian environment. RHDV causes regular, short disease outbreaks, but little is known about how the virus persists and survives between ...

Comparative susceptibility of eastern cottontails and New Zealand white rabbits to classical rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) and RHDV2 [PDF]

, 2022
Rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) is associated with high morbidity and mortality in the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus). In 2010, a genetically distinct RHDV named RHDV2 emerged in Europe and spread to many other regions, including North ...

Relationship between Anti‐European Brown Hare Syndrome Serological Titers and Brown Hare (Lepus europaeus Pallas) Densities

International Journal of Zoology, Volume 2011, Issue 1, 2011., 2011
Thirty‐three protected wild game reproduction areas, located in the province of Florence (Central Italy), were monitored for habitat characteristics and hare census over a period of 2 years. A total of 172 hares was captured, checked for sex, and age, and blood samples were taken.

A sensitive and specific blocking ELISA for the detection of rabbit calicivirus RCV-A1 antibodies [PDF]

, 2012
BACKGROUND: Antibodies to non-pathogenic rabbit caliciviruses (RCVs) cross-react in serological tests for rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) and vice versa, making epidemiological studies very difficult where both viruses occur.

Caliciviridae Other Than Noroviruses

Viruses, 2019
Besides noroviruses, the Caliciviridae family comprises four other accepted genera: Sapovirus, Lagovirus, Vesivirus, and Nebovirus. There are six new genera proposed: Recovirus, Valovirus, Bavovirus, Nacovirus, Minovirus, and Salovirus. All Caliciviridae
