Serological evidence for a non-protective RHDV-like virus [PDF]
The data were recorded during a Rabbit haemorrhagic disease outbreak that occurred in France in 2001 in a wild population of rabbits that we have been monitoring since 2000. These data suggested the existence of non-protective antibodies due to a putative RHDV-like virus.

Domestic European Rabbits Oryctolagus cuniculus: 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

On the virome’s hidden diversity: lessons from RHDV [PDF]
ABSTRACT Emerging infectious diseases are a major challenge to human and animal health. While predicting the emergence of pathogens is complex, the advent of high-throughput sequencing technologies has allowed the rapid identification of unknown microbiology diversity within organisms.

Survival of rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) in the environment
A study was conducted to investigate the persistence of rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) in the environment. Virus was impregnated onto two carrier materials (cotton tape and bovine liver) and exposed to environmental conditions on pasture during autumn in New Zealand.

Immunogenicity of Multi-Target Chimeric RHDV Virus-Like Particles Delivering Foreign B-Cell Epitopes
The rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) vaccine platform is a nanoparticle composed of 180 copies of the viral capsid protein, VP60, self-assembled into virus-like particles (VLPs).

Enhancing Rabbit Welfare in Intensive Production Systems: A Review [PDF]
Rabbit farming is an important sector of animal husbandry worldwide, providing meat, fur, and research models. However, intensive production systems often compromise the welfare of rabbits by restricting their natural behaviors and exposing them to physical and psychological stressors.

Molecular characterization of rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus type 2 and long-lasting protection conferred by a VLP-based vaccine [PDF]
Background Rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) type 2 (GI.2) is an emerging pathogen genetically distinct from classic RHDV (GI.1). It can infect young, wild, and even vaccinated rabbits, and may also contract RHD.

The impact of integrating rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (K5) release with pindone baiting on wild rabbit populations [PDF]
This study quantified the impact of the release of rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus K5 (RHDV K5, K5 hereafter) and pindone baiting at 13 sites within Cudlee Creek fire scar in the Adelaide Hills region, South Australia. K5 release had minimal impact on rabbit populations, whereas a reduction in rabbit counts post‐pindone baiting was observed at most ...
