Genome and evolution of Tibet orbivirus, TIBOV (genus Orbivirus, family Reoviridae) [PDF]

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
Tibet orbivirus (TIBOV) was first isolated from Anopheles maculatus mosquitoes in Xizang, China, in 2009. In recent years, more TIBOV strains have been isolated in several provinces across China, Japan, East Asia, and Nepal, South Asia. Furthermore, TIBOVs have also been isolated from Culex mosquitoes, and several midge species.

Yunnan orbivirus, a new orbivirus species isolated from Culex tritaeniorhynchus mosquitoes in China

Journal of General Virology, 2005
An orbivirus designated Yunnan orbivirus (YUOV) was isolated from Culex tritaeniorhynchus mosquitoes collected in the Yunnan province of China. Electron microscopy showed particles with typical orbivirus morphology. The YUOV genome was sequenced completely and compared with previously characterized orbivirus genomes.

Structural studies of orbivirus particles

, 1998
We are using crystallographic methods to investigate the structure of AHSV and BTV. Our initial approach was to investigate the structure of the major protein component of the viral core, VP7(T13). This trimeric protein has been studied in several crystal forms from both orbiviruses and reveals a structure made up of conserved domains, capable of ...

Structures of orbivirus VP7: implications for the role of this protein in the viral life cycle [PDF]

Structure, 1997
Bluetongue virus (BTV) is the prototypical virus of the genus orbivirus in the family Reoviridae and causes an economically important disease in domesticated animals, such as sheep. BTV is larger and more complex than any virus for which comprehensive atomic level structural information is available.

Structural Studies on Orbivirus Proteins and Particles

, 2006
X-ray and electron microscopy analysis of Bluetongue virus (BTV), the type species of the Orbivirus genus within the family Reoviridae, have revealed various aspects of the organisation and structure of the proteins that form the viral capsid. Orbiviruses have a segmented dsRNA genome, which imposes constraints on their structure and life cycle.

A Review of Knowledge Gaps and Tools for Orbivirus Research

Vector-Borne and Zoonotic Diseases, 2015
Although recognized as causing emerging and re-emerging disease outbreaks worldwide since the late 1800 s, there has been growing interest in the United States and Europe in recent years in orbiviruses, their insect vectors, and the diseases they cause in domestic livestock and wildlife.

Orbivirus Infections in Collared Peccaries (Tayassu tajacu) in Southeastern Brazil [PDF]

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 2012
We surveyed 49 free-living collared peccaries (Pecari tajacu) in Brazil for antibodies against bluetongue virus (BTV) and porcine circovirus 2 (PCV2). Antibodies against BTV were detected in 19/49 (39%) samples. All samples were negative for PCV2. The importance of antibodies to BTV in collared peccaries remains to be determined.

Genetic and epidemiological characterization of Stretch Lagoon orbivirus, a novel orbivirus isolated from Culex and Aedes mosquitoes in northern Australia

Journal of General Virology, 2009
Stretch Lagoon orbivirus (SLOV) was isolated in 2002 from pooled Culex annulirostris mosquitoes collected at Stretch Lagoon, near the Wolfe Creek national park in the Kimberley region of Western Australia. Conventional serological tests were unable to identify the isolate, and electron microscopy indicated a virus of the genus Orbivirus, family ...

Studies on the Particles of Infantile Gastroenteritis Virus (Orbivirus Group)

Intervirology, 1976
Isopycnic centrifugation of infantile gastroenteritis virus (orbivirus group) in a CsCl gradient produced up to four bands at densities 1.38, 1.36, 1.30 and 1.28 g/ml. The particles in the bands had sedimentation coefficients of 380-400S, 520-530S, 270-280S and 320-330S, respectively. Whereas the 1.38 and 1.36 g/ml particles contained RNA, the 1.30 and
