Molecular characterization of the African orthobunyavirus Ilesha virus
Infection, Genetics and Evolution, 2013 Ilesha virus is an arthropod-borne virus belonging to the genus Orthobunyavirus of the Bunyaviridae family. Ilesha virus has been isolated from humans in several African countries, mostly in relation with febrile illness and erythema, though there are reported cases of fatal meningoencephalitis and hemorrhagic fever. In the present study, we report the

Mapping of transcription termination within the S segment of SFTS phlebovirus facilitated the generation of NSs-deletant viruses [PDF]
, 2017 SFTS phlebovirus (severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus; SFTSV) is an emerging tick-borne bunyavirus that was first reported in China in 2009. Here we report the generation of a recombinant SFTSV (rHB29NSsKO) that cannot express the viral non-

Genomic characterization of orthobunyavirus of veterinary importance in America [PDF]
Infection, Genetics and Evolution, 2019 During 2013, in Argentina, three new isolates of serogroup Bunyamwera virus (genus Orthobunyavirus, family Peribunyaviridae) were recovered from two horses with encephalitis, and from an aborted equine fetus. In the present study, we report the complete genome sequence, genetic characterization, and phylogenetic analysis of three new strains isolated ...

Sensitivity to BST-2 restriction correlates with Orthobunyavirus host range [PDF]
Virology, 2017 Orthobunyaviruses include several recently emerging viruses of significant medical and veterinary importance. There is currently very limited understanding on what determines the host species range of these pathogens. In this study we discovered that BST-2/tetherin restricts orthobunyavirus replication in a host-specific manner.

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.Arboviral diseases spread by Culicoides biting midges have been introduced into Europe by unknown means. A possible route is the carriage of midges with cut flowers shipped to flower markets. We sampled Culicoides in and around a cut flower farm in Kenya; midges were caught in the vicinity and a greenhouse, but not where flowers are processed.
