Rift Valley Fever Phlebovirus Reassortment Study in Sheep [PDF]
Rift Valley fever (RVF) in ungulates and humans is caused by a mosquito-borne RVF phlebovirus (RVFV). Live attenuated vaccines are used in livestock (sheep and cattle) to control RVF in endemic regions during outbreaks.

Apoptosis of Hepatocytes Caused by Punta Toro Virus (Bunyaviridae: Phlebovirus) and Its Implication for Phlebovirus Pathogenesis [PDF]
Experimental infection of hamsters with Punta Toro virus (PTV) produces a disease with clinical and pathological similarities to the severe human hemorrhagic fever caused by Rift Valley fever virus (RVFV), thus providing an animal model for RVFV pathogenesis. In this model, hepatocytic apoptosis is the main pathological component of liver injuries that

Genome sequence of a novel phlebovirus associated with lettuce big vein disease infecting lettuce (Lactuca spp.) [PDF]
Lettuce big vein disease is a disease complex involving at least two RNA viruses, both transmitted by the soilborne fungus Olpidium virulentus. Here, we present the genomic sequence of a novel unrelated third negative-stranded RNA virus, belonging to the

Production, Quantitation, and Infection of Amazonian Icoaraci Phlebovirus (Bunyaviridae). [PDF]
Phlebotomine vectors, sand flies of the order Diptera, are known to transmit Leishmania parasites as well as RNA viruses (arboviruses) to humans. The arbovirus, Icoaraci Phlebovirus (BeAN 24262 - ICOV), used in this study was isolated from Nectomys ...
