antibodies to la crosse virus in eastern chipmunks in indiana near an aedes albopictus population. | blood samples of 34 eastern chipmunks trapped in the vicinity of an aedes albopictus population near new alsace, in, were tested for neutralizing antibodies to la crosse (lac) virus and other california group viruses. two samples were positive for lac antibodies. analysis of mosquito bloodmeals demonstrated that both ae. albopictus and ae. triseriatus from the site fed on chipmunks. this note documents the first record of lac antibodies in sylvan rodents from indiana, the presence of lac virus i ... | 1991 | 1787412 |
serological evidence of california group and cache valley virus infection in minnesota white-tailed deer. | blood samples were obtained from 138 white-tailed deer (odocoileus virginianus) harvested at three sites surrounding the greater minneapolis-st. paul, minnesota, metropolitan area (usa) and tested for neutralizing antibody to cache valley virus and three california serogroup (jamestown canyon, la crosse, trivittatus) viruses (bunyaviridae). deer at each site had neutralizing antibody to one or more california serogroup viruses and/or cache valley virus. the majority of adult deer (85%) had antib ... | 1991 | 1906113 |
virus-vector-host relationships of aedes stimulans and jamestown canyon virus in a northern indiana enzootic focus. | collections of hematophagous diptera at the kingsbury state fish and wildlife area in northern indiana between 1982 and 1984 yielded 118,972 mosquitoes from which 5 isolates of jamestown canyon virus and 3 isolates of trivittatus virus were obtained. all jamestown canyon isolates were from aedes stimulans, including 1 from a pool of newly emerged males and 2 from pools of newly emerged females. these 3 isolates suggest that jamestown canyon virus is transovarially transmitted by ae. stimulans. a ... | 1986 | 2878626 |
seroconversion rates to jamestown canyon virus among six populations of white-tailed deer (odocoileus virginianus) in indiana. | the annual seroconversion of fawns, yearlings, and adult white-tailed deer (odocoileus virginianus) to jamestown canyon virus (california group) was followed at six indiana sites from 1981 through 1984. in all, sera from 1,642 deer (515 fawns, 618 yearlings, and 509 adults) were tested for neutralizing antibody to three california serogroup viruses: jamestown canyon, la crosse, and trivittatus. virtually all deer with specific neutralizing antibody showed evidence of a prior infection with james ... | 1987 | 3820426 |

genotypic varieties of la crosse virus isolated from different geographic regions of the continental united states and evidence for a naturally occurring intertypic recombinant la crosse virus. | the tripartite ribonucleic acid (rna) genomes of 23 alternate isolates of la crosse virus have been analyzed by the procedure of oligonucleotide fingerprinting. by comparison with the fingerprints of the three viral rna species (large, medium and small) of prototype la crosse virus, the viruses have been categorized in terms of the degree of their rna sequence relatedness. the a type la crosse viruses, which have been recovered from wisconsin, minnesota, indiana and ohio, have viral rna sequence ... | 1981 | 7246519 |
