Good intentions with adverse outcomes when conservation and pest management guidelines are ignored: A case study in rabbit biocontrol [PDF]
To mitigate the negative impacts of invasive rabbits in Australia, land managers are permitted to release the biocontrol virus, rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV), to reduce rabbit numbers.

RNAi Inhibition of Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease Virus (RHDV) Gene Expression in CHO Cell Line [PDF]
Rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) causes great losses and is life threatening to both wild and domestic rabbits. This work represents the first step toward production of transgenic rabbits resistant to RHDV by RNAi through the inhibition of expression of a part of the RHDV genome and the consequent inhibition of its multiplication.

Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease Virus 2 (RHDV2; GI.2) Is Replacing Endemic Strains of RHDV in the Australian Landscape within 18 Months of Its Arrival [PDF]
ABSTRACT Rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus 2 (RHDV2; Lagovirus GI.2) is a pathogenic calicivirus that affects European rabbits ( Oryctolagus cuniculus ) and various hare ( Lepus ) species.

Diagnosis of a Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease Virus 2 (RHDV2) and the Humoral Immune Protection Effect of VP60 Vaccine [PDF]
Rabbit hemorrhagic disease (RHD) is known as rabbit plague and hemorrhagic pneumonia. It is an acute, septic, and highly fatal infectious disease caused by the Lagovirus rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) in the family Caliciviridae that infects ...

Domestic European Rabbits <i>Oryctolagus cuniculus</i>: A Super-Highway for the Spread of Emergent Viral Diseases to Other Lagomorphs? [PDF]
We propose that the worldwide spread of several viral diseases in European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) is facilitated by domestic rabbit meat production and associated international trade. This view is based on published records of the transfer of rabbit haemorrhagic disease viruses (RHDV/RHDV2) between countries and supported by data from the Food

The Baculovirus Expression System Expresses Chimeric RHDV VLPs as Bivalent Vaccine Candidates for Classic RHDV (GI.1) and RHDV2 (GI.2) [PDF]
Background: Rabbit hemorrhagic disease (RHD) is an acute, hemorrhagic and highly lethal infectious disease caused by rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV), which causes huge economic losses to the rabbit breeding industry.

Purified preparations of the Spanish field isolate of rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus AST/89 were found to contain the plus-stranded genomic RNA of more than 7.4 kilobases (kb) and large amounts of a subgenomic mRNA of 2.4 kb. The smaller RNA was translated in vitro and shown to code for a 60 kDa protein which was immunoprecipitated using anti-RHDV as

Specific Detection of RHDV GI.1 and GI.2 by RT-LAMP-CRISPR/Cas12a Platform. [PDF]
Rabbit hemorrhagic disease is a highly contagious and acute fatal disease caused by rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV). The first outbreak of RHDV2 in 2020 has posed a serious threat to the rabbit breeding industry in China. An effective and specific detection strategy for RHDV GI.1 (RHDV1) and GI.2 (RHDV2) is urgently needed.

Novel Recombinant Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease Virus 2 (RHDV2) is Circulating in China within 12 Months after Original RHDV2 Arrival. [PDF]
Rabbit hemorrhagic disease (RHD) causes lethal fulminant hepatitis in rabbits. Two different genotypes (GI.1 and GI.2) responsible for RHD are reported. GI.2 was first detected in France in 2010 and subsequently spread to other countries in Europe. In April 2020, GI.2 was detected in China.

Novel Calicivirus Identified in Rabbits, Michigan, USA [PDF]
We report a disease outbreak in a Michigan rabbitry of a rabbit calicivirus distinct from the foreign animal disease agent, rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV). The novel virus has been designated Michigan rabbit calicivirus (MRCV).
