Culicoides and midge-associated arboviruses on cattle farms in Yunnan Province, China [PDF]

Parasite
Culicoides spp. (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) are small biting midges, some of which are the vectors of arboviruses affecting livestock, i.e., African horse sickness virus (AHSV), bluetongue virus (BTV), and epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus (EHDV ...

Detection of bluetongue virus in Culicoides spp. in southern Yunnan Province, China [PDF]

Parasites & Vectors, 2021
Background Culicoides (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) are vectors for many arboviruses. At least 20 species are considered as vectors or potential vectors of bluetongue virus (BTV) which cause bluetongue disease in ruminants.

Isolation and Genetic Characterization of Three Palyam Serogroup Orbiviruses From Culicoides Spp. and Associated Infections in Cattle in Yunnan, China [PDF]

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Palyam serogroup virus (PALV) is a potential pathogen prevalent in Asia, Australia, and Africa that may cause abortion and teratogenesis in ruminants, especially cattle. In this study, we isolated three PALV strains (MY_C17, ML_C40, and SZ_C06) from Culicoides spp.

Real‐Time Reverse Transcription Multienzyme Isothermal Rapid Amplification for Rapid Detection of African Horse Sickness Virus [PDF]

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
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 ...
