Molecular epidemiology of Akabane virus in Taiwan

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 2215-2222, September 2022., 2022
This study provided genomic information on the Taiwanese akabane virus between 1994–2015. The result of phylogenetic analysis indicated two invasion events to shape virus population in Taiwan. And two invasion events of the akabane virus from Taiwan to the Yaeyama islands might happen in 1990 and 1998.

Insight on the larval habitat of Afrotropical Culicoides Latreille (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) in the Niayes area of Senegal, West Africa [PDF]

, 2016
Background: Certain biting midges species of the genus Culicoides (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) are vectors of virus to livestock worldwide. Culicoides larval ecology has remained overlooked because of difficulties to identify breeding sites, methodological

Insecticidal effects of deltamethrin in laboratory and field populations of Culicoides species: how effective are host-contact reduction methods in India? [PDF]

, 2017
BACKGROUND: Bluetongue virus (BTV) is transmitted by Culicoides biting midges and causes bluetongue (BT), a clinical disease observed primarily in sheep.

High Prevalence of Mansonella perstans Filariasis in Rural Senegal. [PDF]

, 2015
Large parts of African and American countries are colonized by Mansonella, a very common but poorly described filarial nematode. Bloodsucking flies of the genus Culicoides are suspected to be the vector of Mansonella perstans, but no study in Senegal has

Phylogenetic relationships and molecular delimitation of Culicoides Latreille (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) species in the Afrotropical region: interest for the subgenus Avaritia [PDF]

, 2017
Phylogenetic relationships of Culicoides species of the Afrotropical region are problematic as different authors disagree on the placement of species into specific subgenera or groups.

Host Landing And Diel Activity of Potent Vectors of Bluetongue Disease, Culicoides Oxystoma and Culicoides Peregrinus [PDF]

, 2021
Abstract Background The spread of bluetongue virus depends on the vectorial ability of Culicoides affecting the susceptible host. Animal farms in West Bengal have reported prevalence of potent vectors of BTV (C. oxystoma, C. peregrinus and C. fulvus).

Rapid Molecular Detection Methods for Arboviruses of Livestock of Importance to Northern Europe

BioMed Research International, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
Arthropod‐borne viruses (arboviruses) have been responsible for some of the most explosive epidemics of emerging infectious diseases over the past decade. Their impact on both human and livestock populations has been dramatic. The early detection either through surveillance or diagnosis of virus will be a critical feature in responding and resolving ...
