Metagenomic next-generation sequencing of samples from pediatric febrile illness in Tororo, Uganda. [PDF]
, 2019 Febrile illness is a major burden in African children, and non-malarial causes of fever are uncertain. In this retrospective exploratory study, we used metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) to evaluate serum, nasopharyngeal, and stool specimens ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 10, Issue 12, Page 5440-5450, June 2020., 2020 It is unclear how historical adaptation versus maladaptation in a prior environment affects population evolvability in a novel habitat. We tested whether prior evolution of vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) populations at either at constant temperature or under random changing temperatures affected the rate of adaptation at the thermal‐niche edge.

Development of a reverse genetics system for snakehead vesiculovirus (SHVV)
Virology, 2019 Snakehead vesiculovirus (SHVV) is a new rhabdovirus isolated from diseased hybrid snakehead fish (Channa maculate ♀ x Channa argus ♂) and has caused serious economic losses in snakehead fish culture in China. To better understand the pathogenicity of SHVV, we developed a reverse genetics system for SHVV by using human and fish cells.

Identification of rhabdoviral sequences in oropharyngeal swabs from German and Danish bats [PDF]
, 2014 BACKGROUND: In the frame of active lyssavirus surveillance in bats, oropharyngeal swabs from German (N = 2297) and Danish (N = 134) insectivorous bats were investigated using a newly developed generic pan-lyssavirus real-time reverse transcriptase PCR ...

The host-range tdCE phenotype of Chandipura virus is determined by mutations in the polymerase gene [PDF]
The emerging arbovirus Chandipura virus (CV) has been implicated in epidemics of acute encephalitis in India with high mortality rates. The isolation of temperature-dependent host-range (tdCE) mutants, which are impaired in growth at 39 °C in chick ...

Purification and characterization of a novel defensin from the salivary glands of the black fly, Simulium bannaense [PDF]
, 2015 BACKGROUND: Black flies (Diptera: Simuliidae) are haematophagous insects that can cause allergic reactions and act as vectors of pathogens. Although their saliva has been thought to contain a diverse array of physiologically active molecules, little ...

Novel Viruses in Mosquitoes from Brazilian Pantanal
Viruses, 2019 Viruses are ubiquitous and diverse microorganisms arising as a result of interactions within their vertebrate and invertebrate hosts. Here we report the presence of different viruses in the salivary glands of 1657 mosquitoes classified over 28 culicinae ...
