The MVA-VP2-NS1-2A-NS2-Nt vaccine candidate provides heterologous protection in sheep against bluetongue virus [PDF]
Frontiers in ImmunologyBluetongue (BT) is an important arthropod-borne livestock disease transmitted by Culicoides midges. The etiological agent, Bluetongue virus (BTV), can lead to severe economic losses due to reduced productivity and trade restrictions.

Genome Sequences of a Novel Strain of Big Cypress Orbivirus Isolated from a Dead Florida White-Tailed Deer (Odocoileus virginianus) [PDF]
Microbiology Resource Announcements, 2019 Here, we report the coding sequences of Big Cypress orbivirus isolated from a dead white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) from Florida in 2017. To our knowledge, this is the first detection of Big Cypress orbivirus in a vertebrate host. ABSTRACT Here,

Detection of a Fourth Orbivirus Non-Structural Protein
PLoS ONE, 2011 The genus Orbivirus includes both insect and tick-borne viruses. The orbivirus genome, composed of 10 segments of dsRNA, encodes 7 structural proteins (VP1-VP7) and 3 non-structural proteins (NS1-NS3). An open reading frame (ORF) that spans almost the entire length of genome segment-9 (Seg-9) encodes VP6 (the viral helicase).

Isolation of Tibet orbivirus from Culicoides and associated infections in livestock in Yunnan, China [PDF]
Virology Journal, 2017 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. This study was conducted to identify Culicoides-borne arboviruses and to investigate the associated infections in local livestock in Yunnan ...

Isolation of Tibet orbivirus, TIBOV, from Culicoides Collected in Yunnan, China
PLOS ONE, 2015 We isolated a novel virus strain (YN12246) from Culicoides spp. specimens collected at the China-Laos-Myanmar border in southern Yunnan Province. This virus had a cytopathic effect (CPE) on both insect cells (C6/36) and mammalian cells (BHK-21).

Diagnostic des orbivirus dans un pays d'endémicité
Revue d’élevage et de médecine vétérinaire des pays tropicaux, 2009 This presentation highlights the complexities of making a diagnosis in a situation where vaccination is taking place, and where there are multiple virus serotypes and related viruses in circulation. The main orbiviruses of interest are those of African horse sickness (AHS) and bluetongue (BT) and further complicated by the viruses of equine ...
