Conservation and Variation in Orthopoxvirus Genome Structure
Journal of General Virology, 1979 Orthopoxvirus DNA from representative strains of rabbitpox, vaccinia, monkeypox, variola, cowpox and ectromelia viruses was analysed by cleavage with restriction endonucleases HindIII, XhoI or SmaI. Genome mol. wt. vary from about 120 x 10(6) for rabbitpox to about 145 x 10(6) for cowpox.

Orthopoxvirus Strains Defective in Surface Antigen Induction
Journal of General Virology, 1979 Various strains of vaccinia, variola, whitepox, monkeypox and cowpox viruses were examined for their capacity to induce a specific early antigen detectable on the surface of infected cells. The Elstree strain of vaccinia, two strains of variola minor and white variants of cowpox and monkeypox viruses lacked the capacity to induce the antigen. Variation

Human Monkeypox in Sierra Leone after 44-Year Absence of Reported Cases
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2019 We note the reemergence of human monkeypox in Sierra Leone following a 44-year absence of reported disease. The persons affected were an 11-month-old boy and, several years later, a 35-year-old man.
