natural transmission of keystone virus to sentinel rabbits on the delmarva peninsula.	domestic rabbits were exposed in the pocomoke cypress swamp from early may through october 1973, to act as sentinel indicators of keystone (key) virus transmission on the delaware-maryland-virginia (delmarva) peninsula. rabbits were bled weekly and their sera were tested for the presence of neutralizing antibody to both key and james-town canyon (jc) viruses. adult mosquito activity was monitored concurrently by cdc miniature light traps with dry ice. of 100 rabbits exposed, 20 rabbits acquired ...	1978	717629
serologic evidence of jamestown canyon and keystone virus infection in vertebrates of the delmarva peninsula.	serological data accumulated during the past decade indicated that a variety of feral and domestic animals of the delaware-maryland-virginia (delmarva) peninsula were infected with jamestown canyon (jc) and/or keystone (key) viruses (bunyaviridae, california serogroup). neutralizing (n) antibody to jc virus was most prevalent in white-tailed deer, sika deer, cottontail rabbits and horses. key virus n antibody was detected most frequently in gray squirrels and domestic goats. n antibody indicativ ...	1982	7149110
absence of la crosse virus in the presence of aedes triseriatus on the delmarva peninsula.	between 1980 and 1984, field studies were conducted in 2 areas on the delmarva peninsula to identify the presence of la crosse (lac) virus. ovitraps were used to collect eggs of aedes triseriatus complex mosquitoes. no virus was obtained from 969 pools containing 22,370 adult mosquitoes reared from eggs. only 1 of 143 raccoon serum samples had neutralizing antibody to lac virus; 36 sentinel domestic goats, and 99 other wild mammal serum samples were negative. the apparent absence of lac virus ma ...	1986	3507467
