Domestic European Rabbits <i>Oryctolagus cuniculus</i>: A Super-Highway for the Spread of Emergent Viral Diseases to Other Lagomorphs? [PDF]

Transbound Emerg Dis
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

Specific Detection of RHDV GI.1 and GI.2 by RT-LAMP-CRISPR/Cas12a Platform. [PDF]

Transbound Emerg Dis
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.

An RT-qPCR Assay from Rectal Swabs for the Detection of Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease Virus 2 in Natural Cases. [PDF]

Transbound Emerg Dis, 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.

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.

Microbial metagenomic approach uncovers the first rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus genome in Sub-Saharan Africa

Scientific Reports, 2021
Rabbit Haemorrhagic Disease (RHD) causes high morbidity and mortality in rabbits and hares. Here, we report the first genomic characterization of lagovirus GI.2 virus in domestic rabbits from sub-Saharan Africa.

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 ...

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.

The impact of integrating rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (K5) release with pindone baiting on wild rabbit populations. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
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 ...
