Genomic Detection of Schmallenberg Virus, Israel [PDF]
We discuss genomic detection of Schmallenberg virus in both Culicoides midges and affected ruminants during June 2018–December 2019, demonstrating its circulation in Israel.

Testing for Schmallenberg virus [PDF]
AS a screening method for detecting herd-level exposure to Schmallenberg virus (SBV), the bulk milk SBV antibody ELISA offered by Biobest Laboratories has proved popular. Results from this test suggest that the majority of herds in England and Wales have been exposed to SBV (Humphries and Burr 2012).

Spatial Modelling of Environmental Risk Factors Influencing Schmallenberg Virus Exposure in German Sheep [PDF]
Schmallenberg virus (SBV) is a Culicoides‐borne Orthobunyavirus causing congenital malformations and reproductive losses in ruminants, with substantial economic and livestock health impacts across Europe. While outbreaks have been linked to specific climatic and environmental conditions, the drivers of SBV transmission in endemic regions remain poorly ...

Bluetongue Virus Serotype 3 and Schmallenberg Virus in Culicoides Biting Midges, Western Germany, 2023 [PDF]
In October 2023, bluetongue virus serotype 3 (BTV-3) emerged in Germany, where Schmallenberg virus is enzootic. We detected BTV-3 in 1 pool of Culicoides biting midges collected at the time ruminant infections were reported.

Significant Impact of Schmallenberg Virus in Three Ruminant Farms: A Laboratory Experience [PDF]
Schmallenberg virus (SBV) is endemic in Europe and other parts of the world and represents an underestimated and underdiagnosed cause of abortion and economic losses for livestock farms. In the present study, we evaluated SBV’s impact on three ruminant farms, in particular, two dairy cattle farms with reproductive problems (including abortions ...

Anti-Schmallenberg Virus Activities of Type I/III Interferons-Induced Mx1 GTPases from Different Mammalian Species [PDF]
Mx proteins are key factors of the innate intracellular defense mechanisms that act against viruses induced by type I/III interferons. The family Peribunyaviridae includes many viruses of veterinary importance, either because infection results in ...

Survey to determine the farm‐level impact of Schmallenberg virus during the 2023–2024 UK lambing season [PDF]
Abstract Background This study aimed to assess the impacts of Schmallenberg virus (SBV) on the 2023/2024 UK lambing season. Methods An online survey was distributed to UK sheep farmers between February and May 2024. Responses were compared across SBV‐confirmed, suspected and not suspected farms.

Schmallenberg Virus as Possible Ancestor of Shamonda Virus
Schmallenberg virus (SBV), an orthobunyavirus of the Simbu serogroup, recently emerged in Europe and has been suggested to be a Shamonda/Sathuperi virus reassortant.

Schmallenberg Virus Recurrence, Germany, 2014
Schmallenberg virus (SBV) emerged in Germany in 2011, spread rapidly across Europe, and almost disappeared in 2013. However, since late summer 2014, new cases have occurred in adult cattle.
