The Viral Threat in Cotton: How New and Emerging Technologies Accelerate Virus Identification and Virus Resistance Breeding

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Cotton (Gossypium spp. L., Malvaceae) is the world’s largest source of natural fibers. Virus outbreaks are fast and economically devasting regarding cotton.

Compartmentalized human immunodeficiency virus type 1 originates from long-lived cells in some subjects with HIV-1-associated dementia. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2009
Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) invades the central nervous system (CNS) shortly after systemic infection and can result in the subsequent development of HIV-1-associated dementia (HAD) in a subset of infected individuals.

The Bee Hemolymph Metabolome: A Window into the Impact of Viruses on Bumble Bees

open access: yesViruses, 2021
State-of-the-art virus detection technology has advanced a lot, yet technology to evaluate the impacts of viruses on bee physiology and health is basically lacking. However, such technology is sorely needed to understand how multi-host viruses can impact

Synthetic virus-like particles target dendritic cell lipid rafts for rapid endocytosis primarily but not exclusively by macropinocytosis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
DC employ several endocytic routes for processing antigens, driving forward adaptive immunity. Recent advances in synthetic biology have created small (20-30 nm) virus-like particles based on lipopeptides containing a virus-derived coiled coil sequence ...

Unusual Ebola Virus Chain of Transmission, Conakry, Guinea, 2014–2015

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2016
In October 2015, a new case of Ebola virus disease in Guinea was detected. Case investigation, serology, and whole-genome sequencing indicated possible transmission of the virus from an Ebola virus disease survivor to another person and then to the case ...

A discrete-time analog for coupled within-host and between-host dynamics in environmentally driven infectious disease

open access: yesAdvances in Difference Equations, 2018
In this paper, we establish a discrete-time analog for coupled within-host and between-host systems for an environmentally driven infectious disease with fast and slow two time scales by using the non-standard finite difference scheme.

The CpG dinucleotide content of the HIV-1 envelope gene may predict disease progression

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
The clinical course of HIV-1 varies greatly among infected individuals. Despite extensive research, virus factors associated with slow-progression remain poorly understood.

African Swine Fever Epidemic, Poland, 2014–2015

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2016
In Poland, African swine fever (ASF) emerged in February 2014; by August 2015, the virus had been detected in >130 wild boar and in pigs in 3 backyard holdings. We evaluated ASF spread in Poland during these 18 months.
