Genetic Diversity of Toscana Virus
Distribution of Toscana virus (TOSV) is evolving with climate change, and pathogenicity may be higher in nonexposed populations outside areas of current prevalence (Mediterranean Basin). To characterize genetic diversity of TOSV, we determined the coding

Amphibian Strategies Against Attacks by Flies: Host‐Specificity and Threats
Species interactions between Diptera flies and amphibians play a significant role in tropical ecosystems, but their ecology and evolution remain understudied. This review explores the costs flies impose on amphibians, such as pathogen transmission and disruption of communication systems, and highlights the evolutionary strategies employed by both ...

Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS), primarily a tick‐borne disease, can also cause fatal human‐to‐human transmission. This report analyzes a cluster of six SFTS cases identified in China in 2022, involving one index patient and five secondary infections, with an overall mortality of 83%.

Production, quantification, and infection of Amazonian Phlebovirus (Bunyaviridae)
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 rodents, a mammalian species that is the same natural sylvatic reservoir of Leishmania (Leishmania ...
