Characterization of Attenuated Strains of Rift Valley Fever Virus
The wild-type ZH501 strain of Rift Valley fever (RVF) virus and two small-plaque strains (T1 and T46) derived from it were characterized by plaque size, pathogenicity for hamsters and ability to replicate in Vero cells. Additionally, a mutagenized, attenuated, large-plaque, vaccine-candidate strain of RVF virus (ZH548-M12) was also studied.

Rift Valley Fever Virus: Propagation, Quantification, and Storage
AbstractRift Valley fever virus (RVFV) is an arthropod‐borne, zoonotic disease endemic to sub‐Saharan Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. Outbreaks of Rift Valley fever have had up to 100% mortality rates in fetal and neonatal sheep. Upon infection of ruminant and human hosts alike, RVFV infection causes an at times severe hepatitis and pathology in many
