[Genetic characterization of the Batken virus (BKNV) (Orthomyxoviridae, Thogotovirus) isolated from the Ixodidae ticks Hyalomma marginatum Koch, 1844 and the mosquitoes Aedes caspius Pallas, 1771, as well as the Culex hortensis Ficalbi, 1889 in the Central Asia].

Voprosy virusologii, 2014
The prototype strain LEIV-K306 of the Batken virus (BKNV) was isolated from the Ixodidae ticks Hyalomma marginatum Koch, 1844 collected from sheep near town Batken (Kirgizstan) in the April 1970. Later, the BKNV was isolated in Kirgizstan from the mixed pool of the Aedes caspius Pallas, 1771 and Culex hortensis Ficalbi, 1889 mosquitoes.

Characterisation of putative novel tick viruses and zoonotic risk prediction. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Tick‐borne viruses remain a substantial zoonotic risk worldwide, so knowledge of the diversity of tick viruses has potential health consequences. Through data mining and bioinformatic analyses of more than 37,800 public meta‐genomic and ‐transcriptomic data sets, we found five putative novel Alphatetra‐like viruses, four putative novel Orthomyxo‐like ...

Comparative mitogenomics elucidates the population genetic structure of Amblyomma testudinarium in Japan and a closely related Amblyomma species in Myanmar

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 15, Issue 7, Page 1062-1078, July 2022., 2022
Abstract Ticks are the second most important vector capable of transmitting diseases affecting the health of both humans and animals. Amblyomma testudinarium Koch 1844 (Acari: Ixodidae), is a hard tick species having a wide geographic distribution in Asia. In this study, we analyzed the composition of A.

Tick‐borne pathogens, including Crimean‐Congo haemorrhagic fever virus, at livestock markets and slaughterhouses in western Kenya

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 68, Issue 4, Page 2429-2445, July 2021., 2021
Abstract Vectors of emerging infectious diseases have expanded their distributional ranges in recent decades due to increased global travel, trade connectivity and climate change. Transboundary range shifts, arising from the continuous movement of humans and livestock across borders, are of particular disease control concern.

Comparative structural and functional analysis of orthomyxovirus polymerase cap-snatching domains. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Orthomyxovirus Influenza A virus (IAV) heterotrimeric polymerase performs transcription of viral mRNAs by cap-snatching, which involves generation of capped primers by host pre-mRNA binding via the PB2 subunit cap-binding site and cleavage 10-13 ...

Ixodid ticks and tick-borne infections in the Republic of Cuba - literature review and rationale for risk assessment

Acta Biomedica Scientifica, 2018
The Republic of Cuba is a popular destination for Russian tourists and about 30-50 thousands of Russian citizens visit Cuba annually. However, the recreational activity is often associated with the risk of Ixodid ticks bites and infection with tick-borne

The Study of Viral RNA Diversity in Bird Samples Using De Novo Designed Multiplex Genus‐Specific Primer Panels

Advances in Virology, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
Advances in the next generation sequencing (NGS) technologies have significantly increased our ability to detect new viral pathogens and systematically determine the spectrum of viruses prevalent in various biological samples. In addition, this approach has also helped in establishing the associations of viromes with many diseases.

Vector‐borne diseases

EFSA Journal, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2017., 2017
Abstract After a request from the European Commission, EFSA's Panel on Animal Health and Welfare summarised the main characteristics of 36 vector‐borne diseases (VBDs) in 36 Disease Profiles. The risk of introduction in the EU through movement of livestock or pets was assessed for each of the 36 VBDs individually, using a semiquantitative Method to ...

Bourbon Virus in Field-Collected Ticks, Missouri, USA

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2017
Bourbon virus (BRBV) was first isolated in 2014 from a resident of Bourbon County, Kansas, USA, who died of the infection. In 2015, an ill Payne County, Oklahoma, resident tested positive for antibodies to BRBV, before fully recovering.
