Isolation of Tibet orbivirus from Culicoides and associated infections in livestock in Yunnan, China [PDF]
Culicoides-borne orbiviruses, such as bluetongue virus (BTV) and African horse sickness virus (AHSV), are important pathogens that cause animal epidemic diseases leading to significant loss of domestic animals.

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.

Orbivirus Structure and Assembly
Orbiviruses (Reoviridae family) are complex nonenveloped RNA viruses with seven structural proteins and a RNA genome consisting of 10 variously sized double-stranded RNA segments. Significant advances in orbivirus research have been made in recent years through the use of gene manipulation techniques coupled with the baculovirus expression system ...

Real-Time Reverse Transcription Multienzyme Isothermal Rapid Amplification for Rapid Detection of African Horse Sickness Virus. [PDF]
African horse sickness (AHS) is an acute infectious disease of equids caused by the AHS virus (AHSV), which can cause up to 90% mortality in naive horses. Reliable and rapid diagnosis is crucial for the surveillance and control of AHSV. As one of the AHSV detection methods recommended by World Organization for Animal Health (WOAH), the RT‐qPCR assay ...

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.

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

A synthetic biology approach for a vaccine platform against known and newly emerging serotypes of bluetongue virus [PDF]
Bluetongue is one of the major infectious diseases of ruminants and is caused by Bluetongue virus (BTV), an arbovirus existing in nature in at least 26 distinct serotypes. Here, we describe the development of a vaccine platform for BTV.
