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

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

Acta Biochimica Polonica, 2021 The aim of this study was the molecular epidemiology of independently introduced RHDV2 strains in Poland. The nucleotide sequences of RHDV2 diagnosed in domestic rabbits in 2018 in the voivodeships of Swietokrzyskie (strain PIN), Malopolskie (strain LIB) and Mazowieckie (strain WAK), and RHDVa from 2015 (strain F77-3) recognized in wild rabbits in ...

Comparative susceptibility of eastern cottontails and New Zealand white rabbits to classical rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) and RHDV2 [PDF]
, 2022 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 ...

Rabbit haemorrhagic disease: Cross-protection and comparative pathogenicity of GI.2/RHDV2/b and GI.1b/RHDV lagoviruses in a challenge trial [PDF]
, 2018 European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) are severely affected by rabbit haemorrhagic disease (RHD). Caused by a lagovirus, the disease leads to losses in the rabbit industry and has implications for wildlife conservation.

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