Phylogenetic relationships of bluetongue viruses based on gene S7.
Previous phylogenetic analyses based on bluetongue virus (BTV) gene segment L3, which encodes the inner core protein, VP3, indicated a geographical distribution of different genotypes. The inner core protein, VP7, of BTV has been identified as a viral attachment protein for insect cell infection. Because the inner core proteins are involved with infectivity of insect cells, we hypothesized that...
متن کاملSeasonal Variation and Impact of Waste-Water Lagoons as Larval Habitat on the Population Dynamics of Culicoides sonorensis (Diptera:Ceratpogonidae) at Two Dairy Farms in Northern California
The Sacramento (northern Central) Valley of California (CA) has a hot Mediterranean climate and a diverse ecological landscape that is impacted extensively by human activities, which include the intensive farming of crops and livestock. Waste-water ponds, marshes, and irrigated fields associated with these agricultural activities provide abundant larval habitats for C. sonorensis midges, in add...
متن کاملSimple procedure for preparation of bluetongue virus and epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus antigens for agar gel immunodiffusion.
A simplified procedure was developed for preparing soluble antigen from two related orbiviruses, bluetongue and epizootic hemorrhagic disease viruses, for agar gel immunodiffusion. The antigens gave excellent results in both micro-agar gel diffusion (agar gel precipitin) and macro-agar gel diffusion (bluetongue immunodiffusion). Minor modification in the spatial arrangement of reference antiser...
متن کاملBluetongue and Related Orbiviruses
volume provides an excellent, easy-to-read introduction to this interesting and important field of research. Bluetongue and related viruses cause disease in cattle, sheep, and some wild animal species. These agents can have significant economic impact, both because of actual livestock morbidity and mortality and because of restrictions of exports of animals and animal products. Another orbiviru...
متن کاملCurrent status and future prospects of epizootic haemorrhagic disease of deer - a review
Epizootic haemorrhagic disease virus (EHDV), a member of the Orbivirus genus in the family Reoviridae, is related to bluetongue virus (BTV) and Palyam serogroup of orbiviruses. The EHDV infects domestic and wild ruminants in many parts of the world. Ten serotypes of EHDV designated (EHDV-1 through EHDV-10) are recognized worldwide. Currently, there is little information about the epidemiology o...
