Emergence of rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus 2 in China in 2020
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.

Genetic heterogeneity of porcine enteric caliciviruses identified from diarrhoeic piglets [PDF]
Enteric caliciviruses (noroviruses and sapoviruses) are responsible for the majority of non-bacterial gastroenteritis in humans of all age groups. Analysis of the polymerase and capsid genes has provided evidence for a huge genetic diversity, but the ...

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]
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.

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
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 ...

One misdated sequence of rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus prevents accurate estimation of its nucleotide substitution rate [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The literature is ripe with phylogenetic estimates of nucleotide substitution rates, especially of measurably evolving species such as RNA viruses.
