Rabbit Syncytium Virus Is a Kemerovo Serogroup Orbivirus [PDF]
Polyacrylamide gel genome electropherotyping and negative-stain electron microscopic studies, along with immunofluorescent staining and immune electron microscopy reactions, indicate that rabbit syncytium virus has the morphologic, genomic, and antigenic attributes of a Kemerovo serogroup orbivirus.

Injection but not ingestion of a mixed virus suspension in Queensland fruit fly (Bactrocera tryoni) shifts persistent covert infection to acute pathology. [PDF]
Covert and persistent infections with multiple insect‐specific viruses are common in pest fruit flies and may affect pest management strategies. Our study investigated the host effects and viral loads of cripavirus and iflavirus as persistent infections in Queensland fruit fly, and after injection and ingestion of a mixed virus suspension containing ...

Association of vectors and environmental conditions during the emergence of Peruvian horse sickness orbivirus and Yunnan orbivirus in northern Peru [PDF]
Since 1983, cases of diseased donkeys and horses with symptoms similar to those produced by alphaviruses were identified in two departments in northern Peru; however serological testing ruled out the presence of those viruses and attempts to isolate an agent were also unproductive.

Whole-Genome Sequencing and Structure Study of Three Biting-Insect-Associated Viruses (<i>Yunnan Orbivirus</i>, Guangxi Orbivirus, and Yongshan Totivirus) Isolated in Yunnan, China. [PDF]
Yunnan Province is an area in China with a major prevalence of biting arthropods (including mosquitos, ticks, and Culicoides) and arboviruses including dengue virus (DENV), bluetongue virus (BTV), and epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus (EHDV). Therefore, attempts to isolate and detect arboviruses are frequently conducted in Yunnan during the past ...

Rapid Molecular Strategy for Orbivirus Detection and Characterization [PDF]
ABSTRACT Orbiviruses infect a wide range of hosts, including humans. The ability to detect them has been hampered by their diversity. Here we present a simple consensus reverse transcription (RT)-PCR method targeting the polymerase gene for orbivirus recognition and characterization.

Metavirome Identification and Pathogenicity Evaluation of Tibet Orbivirus in Pigs. [PDF]
Tibet orbivirus (TIBOV) is an orbivirus transmitted by mosquitoes and Culicoides, despite specific neutralizing antibodies being detected in pigs, but the molecular genetic characteristics of TIBOV strains in infected pigs are completely uncharted, and their pathogenicity in piglets is poorly elucidated.

Isolation and Genetic Characterization of Three Palyam Serogroup Orbiviruses From <i>Culicoides</i> Spp. and Associated Infections in Cattle in Yunnan, China. [PDF]
Palyam serogroup virus (PALV) is a potential pathogen prevalent in Asia, Australia, and Africa that may cause abortion and teratogenesis in ruminants, especially cattle. In this study, we isolated three PALV strains (MY_C17, ML_C40, and SZ_C06) from Culicoides spp.

Inhibition of Orbivirus Replication by Aurintricarboxylic Acid [PDF]
Bluetongue virus (BTV) and African horse sickness virus (AHSV) are vector-borne viruses belonging to the Orbivirus genus, which are transmitted between hosts primarily by biting midges of the genus Culicoides. With recent BTV and AHSV outbreaks causing epidemics and important economy losses, there is a pressing need for efficacious drugs to treat and ...
