Genomic analysis of Poxviridae and exploring qualified gene sequences for phylogenetics
Computational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2021 The members of the Poxviridae family are globally distributed all over the world and can cause infectious diseases. Although genome sequences are publicly available for representative isolates of all genera, studies on the criteria for genome-based classification within the Poxviridae family have rarely been reported.

Poxvirus Bioinformatics Resource Center: a comprehensive Poxviridae informational and analytical resource [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Research, 2004 The Poxvirus Bioinformatics Resource Center (PBRC) has been established to provide informational and analytical resources to the scientific community to aid research directed at providing a better understanding of the Poxviridae family of viruses. The PBRC was specifically established as the result of the concern that variola virus, the causative agent

, 2017 Poxviruses are large, complex, DNA viruses whose various members infect animals and insects. The term pox derives from the English pocks, referring to blister-like skin lesions that are the hallmark of smallpox and other poxvirus infections. Poxviruses have base-paired DNA genomes that range in size from 130 to 300 kbp.

POXVIRUS DISEASE OF SQUIRRELS (POXVIRIDAE, CHORDOPOXVIRINAE, SQPV - SQUIRREL POXVIRUS)
Problems of Virology, 2018 A new taxon of the subfamily Chordopoxvirinae that may represent a new genus of smallpox viruses is considered in this review. The distribution of gray squirrels (Sciurus carolinensis) throughout the UK during the 20th century and the decrease in the population of red squirrels (Sciurus vulgaris) is one of the most well-documented cases of ecological ...

Problems of Virology, 2019 Introduction. The abolition of smallpox vaccination has led to the disappearance of population immunity to pox viruses. However, the threat of infection by pathogenic orthopoxviruses persists and determines the need to develop sensitive and operational methods for indicating pathogens.Objectives and purposes.

Human orf virus (family Poxviridae) infection following a lamb bite in Hungary
Archives of VirologyAbstractHuman orf disease (called ecthyma contagiosum or contagious/infectious pustular dermatitis in animals) was confirmed on the fingers of both hands of a 24-year-old female, after feeding diseased lambs with a nursing bottle in April 2023. In addition to skin symptoms, she had low-grade fever (37.6°C) and swollen lymph nodes in both axilla.

PLOS ONEContagious ecthyma is a skin disease, caused by Orf virus, creating great economic threats to livestock farming worldwide. Zoonotic potential of this disease has gained recent attention owing to the re-emergence of disease in several parts of the world. Increased public health concern emphasizes the need for a predictive understanding of the geographic
