Inhibition of the IFN Response by Bluetongue Virus: The Story So Far

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Bluetongue virus (BTV) is the prototypical orbivirus that belongs to the Reoviridae family. BTV infection produces a disease in ruminants, particularly in sheep, that results in economic losses through reduced productivity. BTV is transmitted by the bite

Vector competence of British Culicoides species for Bluetongue virus serotype 8 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The proportion of infected vectors which are able to transmit an arbovirus to a susceptible host has a significant impact on the epidemic potential of such a virus. Assessing vector competence is therefore crucial to evaluate accurately the risk posed by

Characterization of a second open reading frame in genome segment 10 of bluetongue virus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Viruses have often evolved overlapping reading frames in order to maximise their coding capacity. Until recently, the segmented double-stranded (ds) RNA genome of viruses of the Orbivirus genus was thought to be monocistronic but the identification of ...

Rabbit Syncytium Virus Is a Kemerovo Serogroup Orbivirus [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Microbiology, 1991
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.

Vaccination as a Strategy to Prevent Bluetongue Virus Vertical Transmission

open access: yesPathogens, 2021
Bluetongue virus (BTV) produces an economically important disease in ruminants of compulsory notification to the OIE. BTV is typically transmitted by the bite of Culicoides spp., however, some BTV strains can be transmitted vertically, and this is ...

Transplacental transmission of field and rescued strains of BTV-2 and BTV-8 in experimentally infected sheep [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Transplacental transmission of bluetongue virus has been shown previously for the North European strain of serotype 8 (BTV-8) and for tissue culture or chicken egg-adapted vaccine strains but not for field strains of other serotypes.

Dwarf bat’s (Pipistrellus pipistrellus) lung diploid cell strains and their permissivity to orbiviruses (Reoviridae: Orbivirus) – pathogens of vector-borne animal diseases

open access: yesВопросы вирусологии, 2022
Introduction. Bat cell cultures are a popular model both for the isolation of vector-borne disease viruses and for assessing the possible role of these mammalian species in forming the natural reservoirs of arbovirus infection vectors. The goal of the

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

open access: yesJournal 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.

Epidemiology and Genomic Analysis of Equine Encephalosis Virus Detected in Horses with Clinical Signs in South Africa, 2010–2017

open access: yesViruses, 2021
Equine encephalosis virus (EEV) is a neglected virus endemic to South Africa and is considered to generally result in mild disease in equines. Specimens were analyzed from live horses that presented with undefined neurological, febrile, or respiratory ...

Rapid Molecular Strategy for Orbivirus Detection and Characterization [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Microbiology, 2011
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.
