| california arbovirus (la crosse) infections. iii. epidemiology of california encephalitis in minnesota. | mosquitoes (eggs, larvae, and adults), small woodland animals, and residents of an area where california encephalitis is endemic were studied to elucidate the host-vector cycle of la crosse virus. elementary schoolchildren from surrounding communities and gray squirrels from another area were tested to compare the prevelence of serum antibodies to la crosse virus in areas where the disease is endemic with the prevalence of these antibodies in areas where the disease is not endemic. from 1971 to ... | 1976 | 3613 |
| a comparison of la crosse virus isolated obtained from different ecological niches and an analysis of the structural components of california encephalitis serogroup viruses and other bunyaviruses. | analyses of the oligonucleotide fingerprints of the three genome ribonucleic acid (rna) species of 11 isolates of la crosse (lac) virus, obtained from various ecological niches in the northern united states and compared to those of prototype lac virus, showed that in each place from which these isolates were obtained lac variants and varieties were present with related, but distinguishable, nucleotide sequences for their large, medium, or small rna species. the rna genomes of prototypes trivitta ... | 1979 | 453439 |
| 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 |
| 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 |
