Full genome sequences are key to disclose RHDV2 emergence in the Macaronesian islands

open access: yesVirus Genes, 2017
A recent publication by Carvalho et al. in "Virus Genes" (June 2017) reported the presence of the new variant of rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV2) in the two larger islands of the archipelago of Madeira. Based on the capsid protein sequence, the authors suggested that the high sequence identity, along with the short time spanning between ...

Death in four RHDV2‐vaccinated pet rabbits due to rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus 2 (RHDV2)

Journal of Small Animal Practice, 2021
ObjectivesTo create awareness of single RHDV2 infections and cases of death despite immunisation with RHDV2‐specific vaccine.Materials and MethodsRetrospective case series of four companion rabbits. Patient signalment, vaccination history, pathology and molecular examinations were obtained from the medical records.ResultsThe animals died peracutely or ...

First detection of rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV2) in Singapore

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, 2021
Rabbit haemorrhagic disease (RHD) is a significant viral disease caused by infection with Rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV). The first documented cases of RHDV in Singapore occurred in adult pet European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) in September 2020.

Challenges in the rabbit haemorrhagic disease 2 (RHDV2) molecular diagnosis of vaccinated rabbits [PDF]

open access: yesVeterinary Microbiology, 2017
Molecular methods are fundamental tools for the diagnosis of viral infections. While interpretation of results is straightforward for unvaccinated animals, where positivity represents ongoing or past infections, the presence of vaccine virus in the tissues of recently vaccinated animals may mislead diagnosis.

A real time Taqman RT-PCR for the detection of rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus 2 (RHDV2) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virological Methods, 2015
A specific real time RT-PCR for the detection of RHDV2 was developed and validated using RHDV and RHDV2 RNA preparations from positive field samples. The system was designed to amplify a 127 nucleotide-long RNA region located within the vp60 gene, based on the alignment of six sequences originated in Portugal, obtained in our laboratory, and 11 ...

Worldwide rapid spread of the novel rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (GI.2/RHDV2/b)

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, 2019
We describe the extremely rapid worldwide spread of the Lagovirus europaeus/GI.2/RHDV2/b (henceforth GI.2), the causative infectious agent of the so-called 'novel' rabbit haemorrhagic disease of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus). We tracked down all novel confirmed detections of GI.2 between May 2010 and November 2018 by carrying out a two ...

ELISA for detection of variant rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus RHDV2 antigen in liver extracts

Journal of Virological Methods, 2018
The emergence and rapid spread of variant of the rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV2) require new diagnostic tools to ensure that efficient control measures are adopted. In the present study, a specific sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for detection of RHDV2 antigens in rabbit liver homogenates, based on the use of an RHDV2 ...
