Kinship Analysis Confirms Tolerant Galapagos Mockingbirds Are a Source of Nest Flies That Threaten Darwin's Finches. [PDF]

Mol Ecol
ABSTRACT Host species have evolved different strategies for dealing with parasites. ‘Vulnerable’ hosts, which suffer reduced fitness from parasites, are under selection to evolve defences. ‘Tolerant’ hosts, by contrast, avoid reductions in fitness by mitigating parasite damage.

Molecular Detection and Phylogenetic Analysis of Orf Virus From Dermatological Lesions in the Teats of Goats. [PDF]

Vet Med Sci
Viral DNA (orf virus) was detected in tissue samples using the semi‐nested PCR method. In addition, the data obtained by performing sequence analyses of the amplicons with positive results were compared with the information of different orf virus isolates registered in the GenBank database.

Squirrelpox virus: assessing prevalence, transmission and environmental degradation [PDF]

, 2014
Red squirrels (Sciurus vulgaris) declined in Great Britain and Ireland during the last century, due to habitat loss and the introduction of grey squirrels (Sciurus carolinensis), which competitively exclude the red squirrel and act as a reservoir for ...

Orf Virus-Based Vectors Preferentially Target Professional Antigen-Presenting Cells, Activate the STING Pathway and Induce Strong Antigen-Specific T Cell Responses

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
BackgroundOrf virus (ORFV)-based vectors are attractive for vaccine development as they enable the induction of potent immune responses against specific transgenes. Nevertheless, the precise mechanisms of immune activation remain unknown.

Evidence of parapox-, alphaherpes- and pestivirus infections in carcasses of semi-domesticated reindeer (Rangifer tarandus tarandus) from Finnmark, Norway

Rangifer, 2005
During March to May 2000, 48 carcasses of semi-domesticated reindeer (Rangifer tarandus tarandus) were collected on winter pastures and calving grounds from two herds in western Finnmark and two herds in eastern Finnmark, northern Norway.

Real-Time PCR Detection of Parapoxvirus DNA, [PDF]

Clinical Chemistry, 2006
Abstract Background: Detection of parapoxviruses is important in various animals as well as in humans as zoonotic infections. Reliable detection of parapoxviruses is fundamental for the exclusion of other rash-causing illnesses, for both veterinarians and medical practitioners.
