SARS‐CoV‐2 does not infect pigs, but this has to be verified regularly

Xenotransplantation, Volume 29, Issue 5, September/October 2022., 2022
Abstract For successful xenotransplantation, freedom of the xenocraft donor from certain viral infections that may harm the organ recipient is important. A novel human coronavirus (CoV) with a respiratory tropism, designated as SARS‐CoV‐2, was first identified in January 2020 in China, but likely has been circulating unnoticed for some time before ...

Homology‐based classification of accessory proteins in coronavirus genomes uncovers extremely dynamic evolution of gene content

Molecular Ecology, Volume 31, Issue 13, Page 3672-3692, July 2022., 2022
Abstract Coronaviruses (CoVs) have complex genomes that encode a fixed array of structural and nonstructural components, as well as a variety of accessory proteins that differ even among closely related viruses. Accessory proteins often play a role in the suppression of immune responses and may represent virulence factors.

The direct and indirect effects of bioactive compounds against coronavirus

Food Frontiers, Volume 3, Issue 1, Page 96-123, March 2022., 2022
Abstract Emerging viruses are known to pose a threat to humans in the world. COVID‐19, a newly emerging viral respiratory disease, can spread quickly from people to people via respiratory droplets, cough, sneeze, or exhale. Up to now, there are no specific therapies found for the treatment of COVID‐19.

Surveillance and control of SARS‐CoV‐2 in mustelids: An evolutionary perspective

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 14, Issue 12, Page 2715-2725, December 2021., 2021
Abstract The relevance of mustelids in SARS‐CoV‐2 transmission has become increasingly evident. Alongside experimental demonstration of airborne transmission among ferrets, the major animal model for human respiratory diseases, transmission of SARS‐CoV‐2 within‐ and/or between‐commercial mink farms has occurred and continues to occur.

Mortality associated with avian reovirus infection in a free-living magpie (Pica pica) in Great Britain [PDF]

, 2015
Avian reoviruses (ARVs) cause a range of disease presentations in domestic, captive and free-living bird species. ARVs have been reported as a cause of significant disease and mortality in free-living corvid species in North America and continental ...

A metagenomic comparison of endemic viruses from broiler chickens with runting stunting syndrome and from normal birds [PDF]

, 2016
Runting-stunting syndrome (RSS) in broiler chickens is an enteric disease that causes significant economic losses to poultry producers worldwide due to elevated feed conversion ratios, decreased body weight during growth, and excessive culling.

Genome sequences of three turkey orthoreovirus strains isolated in Hungary [PDF]

, 2015
We have investigated the genomic properties of three turkey reovirus strains—19831M09, D1246, and D1104—isolated in Hungary in 2009. Sequence identity values and phylogenetic calculations indicated genetic conservativeness among the studied Hungarian ...

The impact of Fusarium mycotoxins on human and animal host susceptibility to infectious diseases [PDF]

, 2014
Contamination of food and feed with mycotoxins is a worldwide problem. At present, acute mycotoxicosis caused by high doses is rare in humans and animals. Ingestion of low to moderate amounts of Fusarium mycotoxins is common and generally does not result

Postvaccinal reovirus infection with high mortality in breeder chicks [PDF]

, 2014
A broiler breeder flock was subcutaneously vaccinated at the hatchery with a live avian orthoreovirus (ARV) vaccine against viral arthritis. Chicks began to die at 3 days of age and postmortem examination revealed massive subcutaneous hemorrhages and ...

Human infections associated with wild birds. [PDF]

, 2008
IntroductionWild birds and especially migratory species can become long-distance vectors for a wide range of microorganisms. The objective of the current paper is to summarize available literature on pathogens causing human disease that have been ...
