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.

Genetic characterization of Erve virus, a European Nairovirus distantly related to Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus [PDF]

, 2012
Erve virus (ERVEV) is a European Nairovirus that is suspected to cause severe headache (thunderclap headache) and intracerebral hemorrhage. The mode of transmission to humans (ticks or mosquitoes) is still unknown.

A habitat suitability analysis for three Culicoides species implicated in bluetongue virus transmission in the Southeastern United States

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Culicoides insignis, Culicoides stellifer and Culicoides venustus are suspected Bluetongue Virus vectors in the United States and could potentially influence the transmission of Bluetongue Virus to ruminant livestock. Habitat suitability models predicted suitable habitat for C. insignis in Florida and along the coast, C.

Generation of infectious RNA complexes in Orbiviruses: RNA-RNA interactions of genomic segments. [PDF]

, 2016
Viruses with segmented RNA genomes must package the correct number of segments for synthesis of infectious virus particles. Recent studies suggest that the members of the Reoviridae family with segmented double-stranded RNA genomes achieve this ...

Seasonal resource selection and migration of mule deer in an agricultural landscape

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 89, Issue 4, May 2025.
We investigated research selection, migration, and survival of a mule deer population in southeastern Washington, USA. We observed resident and migratory mule deer and survival was similar between the 2 groups. Regardless of season and scale, intact (grassland and shrubland) or restored cover types were most selected, demonstrating the importance of ...

Bluetongue Serotype 3 in Israel 2013–2018: Clinical Manifestations of the Disease and Molecular Characterization of Israeli Strains

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2020
In this paper, the results of the diagnostic activities on Bluetongue virus serotype 3 (BTV-3) conducted at Kimron Veterinary Institute (Beit Dagan, Israel) between 2013 and 2018 are reported. Bluetongue virus is the causative agent of bluetongue (BT), a

Clinical disease in British sheep infected with an emerging strain of bluetongue virus serotype 3

Veterinary Record, Volume 196, Issue 4, 15/22 February 2025.
Abstract Background Bluetongue virus serotype 3 (BTV‐3) was detected for the first time in cattle and sheep in southern England in 2023, the first UK BTV incursion for more than 15 years. Clinical signs were not observed, yet severe clinical disease and mortality were reported during recent BTV‐3 outbreaks in northern Europe. Methods To investigate the

Quantitative risk assessment for the introduction of bluetongue virus into mainland Europe by long‐distance wind dispersal of Culicoides spp.: A case study from Sardinia

Risk Analysis, Volume 45, Issue 1, Page 108-127, January 2025.
Abstract Europe faces regular introductions and reintroductions of bluetongue virus (BTV) serotypes, most recently exemplified by the incursion of serotype 3 in the Netherlands. Although the long‐distance wind dispersal of the disease vector, Culicoides spp., is recognized as a virus introduction pathway, it remains understudied in risk assessments.

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.
