host and viral traits predict zoonotic spillover from mammals.the majority of human emerging infectious diseases are zoonotic, with viruses that originate in wild mammals of particular concern (for example, hiv, ebola and sars). understanding patterns of viral diversity in wildlife and determinants of successful cross-species transmission, or spillover, are therefore key goals for pandemic surveillance programs. however, few analytical tools exist to identify which host species are likely to harbour the next human virus, or which viruses can cross species ...201728636590
a single-tube rt-pcr for rapid detection and differentiation of some african isolates of palyam serogroup orbiviruses.a single-tube nested reverse transcriptase (nrt) polymerase chain reaction (nrt-pcr) was developed and evaluated for detection of palyam serogroup orbiviruses ribonucleic acid (rna) in cell cultures and clinical samples. a pair of outer primers (pal1 and pal2), designed from genome segment three of chuzan virus of the palyam viruses serogroup, resulted in amplification of a primary 660-base pair (bp) pcr product. using a pair of internal (nested) primers (pal3 and pal4), the nrt-pcr produced a 3 ...200919500619
