Genome signatures, self-organizing maps and higher order phylogenies: a parametric analysis [PDF]
Genome signatures are data vectors derived from the compositional statistics of DNA. The self-organizing map (SOM) is a neural network method for the conceptualisation of relationships within complex data, such as genome signatures.

Molecular detection of two new putative species of gammaherpesvirus in petaurid possums
A molecular survey of herpesviruses in Australian native mammals was conducted, spanning 260 individuals from 27 species. Among the herpesviruses detected, a putative new gammaherpesvirus species was detected in the yellow‐bellied glider (Petaurus australis), and another in the critically endangered Leadbeater's possum (Gymnobelideus leadbeateri).

A murine herpesvirus closely related to ubiquitous human herpesviruses causes T-cell depletion [PDF]
The human roseoloviruses human herpesvirus 6A (HHV-6A), HHV-6B, and HHV-7 comprise the Roseolovirus genus of the human Betaherpesvirinae subfamily. Infections with these viruses have been implicated in many

Porcine cytomegalovirus/porcine roseolovirus (PCMV/PRV): A threat for xenotransplantation?
Abstract The potential for a donor‐derived transmission of porcine cytomegalovirus/porcine roseolovirus (PCMV/PRV) to the recipient has been recognized since pigs were considered candidate donors for xenotransplantation. This review gives a short description of the viral properties and summarizes the current evidence of the effects of PCMV/PRV ...

Activation of ZBP1/RIPK3/MLKL-Dependent Necroptosis by Pseudorabies Virus Restricts Viral Infection in BV2 Microglia Cells. [PDF]
Pseudorabies (PR) virus (PRV), also known as suid herpesvirus 1, is an alphaherpesvirus that causes huge economic losses in the global swine industry. Necroptosis, a caspase‐independent programmed cell death, has been demonstrated to play an important role in regulating viral infections. Here, we showed that PRV infection triggered receptor‐interacting

Detection of a novel gammaherpesvirus (genus Rhadinovirus) in wild muntjac deer in Northern Ireland [PDF]
This study represents the initial part of an investigation into the potential for non-native, wild, free-living muntjac deer (Muntiacus reevesi) to carry viruses that could be a threat to livestock.

Herpes virus infection associated with interstitial nephritis in a beaked whale (Mesoplodon densirostris) [PDF]
Background The capacity for herpesvirus to cause disease in cetaceans is unclear and may be varied depending on the different conditions of individuals and between different species. Kidney pathology and intralesional virus-associated infection have been

The restoration of Iberian lynx (Lynx pardinus) populations in Extremadura (Southwestern Spain) have been carried out since 2014. One of the measures to ensure the success of this program is to examine the effects that diseases may have on reintroduction.

A kinesin-3 recruitment complex facilitates axonal sorting of enveloped alpha herpesvirus capsids.
Axonal sorting, the controlled passage of specific cargoes from the cell soma into the axon compartment, is critical for establishing and maintaining the polarity of mature neurons.
