Viral haemorrhagic disease: RHDV type 2 ten years later
Until the early 1980s, it was totally unknown that lagomorphs were the hosts of several caliciviruses, which were included in the genus Lagovirus by the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) in 2000.

Resolution of Rabbit Haemorrhagic Disease Virus 2 (RHDV2; GI.2) Outbreak in Singapore [PDF]
Rabbit Haemorrhagic Disease (RHD) is a significant viral disease affecting lagomorphs. The first documented cases of RHD in Singapore occurred in adult pet European rabbits in September 2020. Singapore subsequently declared the outbreak resolved in December 2020. Epidemiological investigations ruled out introductions via importation of infected rabbits

The Pathogenicity comparison of RHDV and RHDV2 in China by using relative quantitative assay
Abstract Rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) belongs to Lagovirus in the Caliciviridae family. RHDV is an acute, septic, and highly lethal disease in rabbits. RHDV2, a new variant of RHDV, caused explosive mortality in rabbits of all ages in Sichuan Province, China.

Background In the regular wildlife monitoring action carried out in the summer of the past few years at the Berlenga Island, wild rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) have been repeatedly found dead. However, the origin of those deaths was never investigated.

Adaptive changes in the genomes of wild rabbits after 16 years of viral epidemics
Abstract Since its introduction to control overabundant invasive European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus), the highly virulent rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) has caused regular annual disease outbreaks in Australian rabbit populations. Although initially reducing rabbit abundance by 60%, continent‐wide, experimental evidence has since ...

Molecular detection of Viral diarrhea in Rabbits [PDF]
Enteric diseases of rabbits represent major problem in rabbit production, causing severe losses. Losses occur as result of mortalities and decreased conversion indexes.

Increased pathogenicity in rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus type 2 (RHDV2)
RABBIT haemorrhagic disease (RHD) is an acute and lethal form of viral hepatitis in rabbits ( Oryctolagus cuniculus ) with a mortality rate in adults ranging from 70 per cent to 100 per cent. RHD was first reported in China in 1984, in Europe in 1986, where it caused severe losses to rabbit, and in Australia in 1996 (Abrantes and others 2012).

Comparative susceptibility of eastern cottontails and New Zealand white rabbits to classical rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) and RHDV2 [PDF]
Rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) is associated with high morbidity and mortality in the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus). In 2010, a genetically distinct RHDV named RHDV2 emerged in Europe and spread to many other regions, including North ...

Emerging rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus 2 (RHDV2) at the gates of the African continent
Until the beginning of this decade, the genetic characterization of rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) from Iberian Peninsula had revealed the existence of two genogroups, G1 and sporadically G6. In 2010, the new emerging rabbit haemorrhagic disease variant, RHDV2 or RHDVb, was described in France, from where it has rapidly spread throughout ...

Confirmation of the Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease Virus Type 2 (GI.2) Circulation in North Africa
Rabbit hemorrhagic disease (RHD) is a highly contagious viral disease that causes fatal acute hepatitis in domestic and wild lagomorphs. It has taken on major economic importance in countries like Morocco.
