Nomenclature proposal for picobirnavirus

Archives of Virology, 2009
Picobirnaviruses have been identified in the feces of a broad range of hosts by several international research groups. Because there is no standard nomenclature for these viruses, we propose a clear and unique name for each strain.

Evidence of closely related picobirnavirus strains circulating in humans and pigs in Argentina

Journal of Infection, 2011
On the basis of the published literature, it is still difficult to draw conclusions as to whether picobirnavirus (PBV) circulation is influenced by host species restriction.To provide data regarding the genetic relatedness between porcine and human PBV strains present in Argentina as a means of defining the host range and epidemiology of these viruses ...

Molecular Detection and Characterization of Picobirnavirus in Environmental Water in Thailand

Clinical Laboratory, 2020
Enteric viruses are responsible for waterborne and foodborne infections affecting a large number of people around the world. Picobirnavirus (PBV) is a highly versatile virus, detected in a wide range of hosts and has been reported to be associated with gastroenteritis in humans and animals.Molecular screening of environmental water samples for PBV was ...

Detection of Picobirnavirus in HIV-Infected Patients With Diarrhea in Argentina

Journal of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndromes, 1998
Diarrhea due to enteric pathogens is an important complication of advanced HIV infection. Picobirnaviruses are agents recently linked with human enteritis. In total, 197 fecal samples collected from HIV-infected and noninfected patients with and without diarrhea were investigated for the presence of rotavirus and picobirnavirus by polyacrylamide gel ...

Genomic characterisation of the large segment of a rabbit picobirnavirus and comparison with the atypical picobirnavirus of Cryptosporidium parvum

Archives of Virology, 1999
The 2362 base pair sequence of the larger of the two double stranded RNA genome segments of a rabbit strain of picobirnavirus (PBV) has a major open reading frame (ORF) of 591 amino acids and two smaller ORFs of 55 and 155 amino acids. A clone of the segment did not hybridise with other viral bisegmented ds RNAs from faecal samples.

Identification of a bisegmented double-stranded RNA virus (picobirnavirus) in calf faeces

Veterinary Journal, 2003
To determine the incidence of rotavirus infection among dairy herds in the State of São Paulo, Brazil, 576 faecal samples obtained from calves aged 1-45 days with and without diarrhoea, reared on 63 dairy cattle farms, were analyzed. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) identified 28 samples positive for group A rotavirus, while four samples, two ...

Identification of picobirnavirus from faeces of Italian children suffering from acute diarrhea [PDF]

European Journal of Epidemiology, 1996
Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of nucleic acid extracted from stool samples of diarrhoeic children revealed in 3 out of 690 (0.43%) specimens two electrophoretic bands with a migration pattern characteristic of picobirnavirus ds-RNA. In none of the 92 control children were similar bands detected.

Picobirnavirus infections: viral persistence and zoonotic potential

Reviews in Medical Virology, 2012
SUMMARYPicobirnaviruses (PBVs) are small, non‐enveloped, bisegmented double‐stranded RNA genomic viruses of vertebrate hosts. Since their discovery in the late 1980s in clinical specimens from outbreaks of acute gastroenteritis in children, significant efforts have been made to investigate the role of PBV in diarrheic diseases. PBV has been detected in

Molecular and Phylogenetic Analysis of a Novel Turkey-Origin Picobirnavirus

Avian Diseases, 2014
A previous metagenomic analysis of the turkey gut RNA virus community identified novel enteric viruses that may play roles in poultry enteric diseases or in performance problems noted in the field. As part of the molecular characterization of these novel enteric viruses, a reverse transcriptase-PCR diagnostic assay was developed, targeting a novel ...

Novel bisegmented virus (picobirnavirus) of animals, birds and humans

Asian Pacific Journal of Tropical Disease, 2014
Picobirnaviruses (PBVs) are novel group of small, nonenveloped, bisegmented and double stranded RNA viruses. PBVs have been identified in the faeces of a broad range of hosts by several international research groups. Since attempts to culture PBV in vitro have not been made to date and no animal model of infection and disease exists.
