Comparison of magnetic bead and rapid swab RNA extraction methods for detecting rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus 2 in rabbit liver samples

BioTechniques, 2023
We compared a bead RNA extraction method with a one-tube method that required only a heat block and ice. RNA was first extracted from liver samples from nine rabbits dying from rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus 2 (RHDV2) using magnetic beads, and RT-PCR ...

Enhancing Rabbit Welfare in Intensive Production Systems: A Review. [PDF]

ScientificWorldJournal
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.

An RT‐qPCR Assay from Rectal Swabs for the Detection of Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease Virus 2 in Natural Cases

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus 2 (RHDV2 or Lagovirus europaeus GI.2) is spreading across North America. This has enabled submissions of lagomorphs for testing to veterinary diagnostic laboratories (VDLs). The liver is currently the gold‐standard sample type for testing by RT‐qPCR.

Pathogen profiling of Australian rabbits by metatranscriptomic sequencing

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 69, Issue 5, Page e2629-e2640, September 2022., 2022
Abstract Australia is known for its long history of using biocontrol agents, such as myxoma virus (MYXV) and rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV), to manage wild European rabbit populations. Interestingly, while undertaking RHDV surveillance of rabbits that were found dead, we observed that approximately 40% of samples were negative for RHDV.

Good intentions with adverse outcomes when conservation and pest management guidelines are ignored: A case study in rabbit biocontrol

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 4, Issue 4, April 2022., 2022
Rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus release timing. Abstract 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.

Widespread occurrence of the non‐pathogenic hare calicivirus (HaCV Lagovirus GII.2) in captive‐reared and free‐living wild hares in Europe

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 68, Issue 2, Page 509-518, March 2021., 2021
Abstract The Lagovirus genus comprises both pathogenic viruses as European brown hare syndrome virus (EBHSV‐ GII.1) and rabbit hemorrhagic disease viruses (RHDV‐GI.1 and RHDV2‐GI.2), that principally infect European brown hares (Lepus europeaus) and European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus), respectively, causing severe necrotic hepatitis, spleen ...

Comparative analysis of rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) and new RHDV2 virus antigenicity, using specific virus-like particles [PDF]

, 2015
In 2010 a new Lagovirus related to rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) emerged in France and has since rapidly spread throughout domestic and wild rabbit populations of several European countries.

Emergence of rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus 2 in China in 2020

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 236-239, January 2021., 2021
The first outbreak of rabbit hemorrhagic disease induced by rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus 2 (GI.2) in China. Abstract Rabbit haemorrhagic disease (RHD) is an acute fatal disease caused by the Lagovirus rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV), which was first reported in 1984 in China.
