| segmental configuration and putative origin of the reassortant orbivirus, epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus serotype 6, strain indiana. | in 2006, an exotic reassortant orbivirus, epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus serotype 6 (ehdv-6) [strain (indiana)], was first detected in the united states. to characterize the reassortment configuration of this virus and to conclusively determine the parental virus of each rna segment, the complete genome of ehdv-6 (indiana) was sequenced, in addition to the genomes of representative ehdv-6 and ehdv-2 isolates. based on genomic comparisons to all other ehdv serotypes, we determined that ehdv- ... | 2012 | 22230700 |
| climate, landscape, and the risk of orbivirus exposure in cattle in illinois and western indiana. | climate and environmental data were used to estimate the risk of testing positive for antibodies to bluetongue (btv) and epizootic hemorrhagic disease viruses (ehdv) in cattle in illinois and western indiana over three transmission seasons (2000-2002). the risks of btv and ehdv seropositivity were positively associated with temperature during every year of the study. the ehdv seropositivity was also positively associated with forest patchiness in two of the years. during 2002, a year with unusua ... | 2010 | 20889866 |
| detection of a novel reassortant epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus (ehdv) in the usa containing rna segments derived from both exotic (ehdv-6) and endemic (ehdv-2) serotypes. | epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus (ehdv) is a culicoides-transmitted orbivirus that infects domestic and wild ruminants and is provisionally thought to be distributed throughout africa, north america, australia, east asia and the middle east. historically, of the seven proposed serotypes of ehdv, only ehdv-1 and ehdv-2 have been reported from north america. in 2006, ehdv isolates were recovered from moribund or dead white-tailed deer (odocoileus virginianus) in indiana and illinois that could ... | 2010 | 19828758 |
