Comparative Study of Ten Thogotovirus Isolates and Their Distinct In Vivo Characteristics. [PDF]
J Virol, 2022 Since their discovery over 60 years ago, 15 genetically distinct members of the thogotovirus genus have been isolated. These arboviruses belong to the Orthomyxovirus family and share many features with influenza viruses.

Structures of human-infecting Thogotovirus fusogens support a common ancestor with insect baculovirus [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2017 Significance Thogotoviruses belong to Orthomyxoviridae family and infect a variety of mammalian hosts, including humans. The emergence of these viruses poses great threats to public health and the economy.

Virology, 2017 The genome and structural organization of a novel insect-specific orthomyxovirus, designated Sinu virus, is described. Sinu virus (SINUV) was isolated in cultures of C6/36 cells from a pool of mosquitoes collected in northwestern Colombia. The virus has six negative-sense ssRNA segments. Genetic analysis of each segment demonstrated the presence of six

A novel accessory gene product of tick-borne Dhori-Orthomyxovirus, encoded by overlooked spliced transcripts of RNA segment 6 [PDF]
Journal of VirologyDhori virus (DHOV) (Orthomyxoviridae, genus: Thogotovirus) is a tick-borne virus with a segmented, negative-sense RNA genome. Thogotoviruses can be divided into two clades, Thogoto-like and Dhori-like viruses, which differ in their coding strategy of the
