Pathogen profiling of Australian rabbits by metatranscriptomic sequencing

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 69, Issue 5, Page e2629-e2640, September 2022., 2022
Abstract Australia is known for its long history of using biocontrol agents, such as myxoma virus (MYXV) and rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV), to manage wild European rabbit populations. Interestingly, while undertaking RHDV surveillance of rabbits that were found dead, we observed that approximately 40% of samples were negative for RHDV.

Emergence of rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus 2 in China in 2020

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 236-239, January 2021., 2021
The first outbreak of rabbit hemorrhagic disease induced by rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus 2 (GI.2) in China. Abstract Rabbit haemorrhagic disease (RHD) is an acute fatal disease caused by the Lagovirus rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV), which was first reported in 1984 in China.

Lagovirus infections of hares and rabbits: review of literature and epizootic situation in the World and Russia

Bulletin of NSAU (Novosibirsk State Agrarian University), 2023
Rabbit viral hemorrhagic disease (RHD) and European hare brown liver syndrome (EBHS) are two similar diseases affecting animals of the hare family, caused by closely related lagoviruses and manifesting as an acute and fatal form of hepatitis and thrombohemorrhagic syndrome in all organs, especially the lungs and liver.

Atomic model of rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus by cryo-electron microscopy and crystallography. [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens, 2013
Rabbit hemorrhagic disease, first described in China in 1984, causes hemorrhagic necrosis of the liver. Its etiological agent, rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV), belongs to the Lagovirus genus in the family Caliciviridae.

Etiology of viral induced acute liver failure and defensins as potential therapeutic agents in ALF treatment

Frontiers in Immunology, 2023
Acute liver failure (ALF) is a rare and severe disease, which, despite continuous advances in medicine, is still characterized by high mortality (65-85%). Very often, a liver transplant is the only effective treatment for ALF.

Adaptive changes in the genomes of wild rabbits after 16 years of viral epidemics

Molecular Ecology, Volume 29, Issue 19, Page 3777-3794, October 2020., 2020
Abstract Since its introduction to control overabundant invasive European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus), the highly virulent rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) has caused regular annual disease outbreaks in Australian rabbit populations. Although initially reducing rabbit abundance by 60%, continent‐wide, experimental evidence has since ...

Identification and partial characterisation of a new lagovirus in Australian wild rabbits

Virology, 2009
Rabbit Haemorrhagic Disease Virus (RHDV) is widely used in Australia to control feral rabbit populations. Before RHDV was released on the Australian continent in 1996, antibodies cross-reacting in RHDV specific ELISAs were found in Australian wild rabbits, leading to the hypothesis that a non-pathogenic calicivirus had been circulating in rabbit ...

Sustained Impact of RHDV2 on Wild Rabbit Populations across Australia Eight Years after Its Initial Detection

Viruses, 2023
Following the arrival of rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus 2 (RHDV2) in Australia, average rabbit population abundances were reduced by 60% between 2014 and 2018 based on monitoring data acquired from 18 sites across Australia. During this period, as the
