Differential Antagonism of Human Innate Immune Responses by Tick-Borne
mSphere, 2017 In recent years, several newly discovered tick-borne viruses causing a wide spectrum of diseases in humans have been ascribed to the Phlebovirus genus of the Bunyaviridae family.

Phlebovirus diversity in ticks from livestock in arid ecologies in Kenya.
Ticks and Tick-borne Diseases, 2022 Phleboviruses are emerging pathogens of public health importance. However, their association with ticks is poorly described, particularly in Africa. Here, adult ticks infesting cattle, goats and sheep were collected in two dryland pastoralist ecosystems of Kenya (Baringo and Kajiado counties) and were screened for infection with phleboviruses.
