Viruses, 2021 Lyssaviruses are neurotropic rhabdoviruses thought to be restricted to mammalian hosts, and to originate from bats. The identification of lyssavirus sequences from amphibians and reptiles by metatranscriptomics thus comes as a surprise and challenges the

Lyssaviruses in Insectivorous Bats, South Africa, 2003–2018
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2020 We detected 3 lyssaviruses in insectivorous bats sampled in South Africa during 2003–2018. We used phylogenetic analysis to identify Duvenhage lyssavirus and a potentially new lyssavirus, provisionally named Matlo bat lyssavirus, that is related to West ...

Comparative pathogenesis of different phylogroup I bat lyssaviruses in a standardized mouse model.
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2022 A plethora of bat-associated lyssaviruses potentially capable of causing the fatal disease rabies are known today. Transmitted via infectious saliva, occasionally-reported spillover infections from bats to other mammals demonstrate the permeability of ...

Genomic Surveillance of Rabies Virus in Georgian Canines
Viruses, 2023 Rabies is a fatal zoonosis that is considered a re-emerging infectious disease. Although rabies remains endemic in canines throughout much of the world, vaccination programs have essentially eliminated dog rabies in the Americas and much of Europe ...

Serologic Evidence of Lyssavirus Infection in Bats, Cambodia
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2004 In Cambodia, 1,303 bats of 16 species were tested for lyssavirus. No lyssavirus nucleocapsid was detected in 1,283 brains tested by immunofluorescence assay. Antibodies against lyssaviruses were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in 144 (14.7%)
