Detection of myxoma viruses encoding a defective M135R gene from clinical cases of myxomatosis; possible implications for the role of the M135R protein as a virulence factor

open access: yesVirology Journal, 2010
Background Myxoma virus is a member of the Poxviridae and causes disease in European rabbits. Laboratory confirmation of the clinical disease, which occurs in the autumn of most years in Denmark, has been achieved previously using antigen ELISA and ...

Myxoma Virus-Encoded Host Range Protein M029: A Multifunctional Antagonist Targeting Multiple Host Antiviral and Innate Immune Pathways

open access: yesVaccines, 2020
Myxoma virus (MYXV) is the prototypic member of the Leporipoxvirus genus of the Poxviridae family of viruses. In nature, MYXV is highly restricted to leporids and causes a lethal disease called myxomatosis only in European rabbits (Oryctologous cuniculus)

Genetic Characterization of a Recombinant Myxoma Virus in the Iberian Hare (Lepus granatensis)

open access: yesViruses, 2019
Myxomatosis is a lethal disease in wild European and domestic rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus), which is caused by a Myxoma virus (MYXV) infection—a leporipoxvirus that is found naturally in some Sylvilagus rabbit species in South America and ...

Pixelated pathologies: Camera trapping as a tool for monitoring wildlife health

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 11, Page 2894-2913, November 2025.
Given the increasing emergence of diseases, some with conservation and public health implications, improving and expanding wildlife health surveillance strategies is imperative. Camera trapping is particularly relevant for detecting new outbreaks, monitoring high‐risk zones and evaluating risk mitigation measures. Abstract Camera trapping has become an

Genome Sequence of SG33 Strain and Recombination between Wild-Type and Vaccine Myxoma Viruses

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2011
Myxomatosis in Europe is the result of the release of a South America strain of myxoma virus in 1952. Several attenuated strains with origins in South America or California have since been used as vaccines in the rabbit industry.

First description of a herpesvirus infection in genus Lepus.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
During the necropsies of Iberian hares obtained in 2018/2019, along with signs of the nodular form of myxomatosis, other unexpected external lesions were also observed.

Experience and results of acclimatization of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) in Ternopil region in 1976–1980 [PDF]

open access: yesTheriologia Ukrainica, 2019
An attempt was made to acclimatize the European rabbit in Podillia in the valley of the Seret River (Ternopil oblast), which was carried out in 1976-1980.

The fleas of house mice (Mus musculus L.) and ship rats (Rattus rattus L.) in forest of the Orongorongo Valley, New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 52, Issue 3, Page 239-254, September 2025.
ABSTRACT The ectoparasites of introduced rodents in mainland New Zealand forests include several species of cosmopolitan flea that may be important in the population dynamics and future biocontrol of rodents. We describe a 2‐rodent, 2‐flea system that showed little change over 20 years.

Coinfections of Novel Polyomavirus, Anelloviruses and a Recombinant Strain of Myxoma Virus-MYXV-Tol Identified in Iberian Hares

open access: yesViruses, 2020
Viruses are ubiquitous in nature; however, very few have been identified in the Leporid species. In the fall of 2018, an outbreak of myxomatosis in Iberian hares (Lepus granatensis) was reported in Spain and a novel recombinant myxoma virus strain (MYXV ...
