| distribution and mosquito hosts of chaoyang virus, a newly reported flavivirus from the republic of korea, 2008-2011. | in total, 183,602 female culicine mosquitoes were captured by mosquito magnet, black light, and new jersey light traps, and manual aspiration of resting blood-fed mosquitoes, in the republic of korea from 2008 to 2011. culicine mosquitoes were identified to species, placed in pools of up to 30 mosquitoes each, and screened for flavivirus rna by using an sybr green i-based reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction assay. thirty-two of the 8,199 pools assayed were positive by quantitative po ... | 2014 | 24724298 |
| a novel flavivirus detected in two aedes spp. collected near the demilitarized zone of the republic of korea. | flaviviruses comprise a large and diverse group of positive-stranded rna viruses, including tick-, mosquito- and unknown-vector-borne flaviviruses. a novel flavivirus was detected in pools of aedes vexans nipponii (n=1) and aedes esoensis (n=3) collected in 2012 and 2013 near the demilitarized zone (dmz), republic of korea (rok). phylogenetic analyses of the ns5, e gene and complete polyprotein coding sequence (cds) showed that the novel virus fell within the aedes-borne flaviviruses (abfvs), wi ... | 2017 | 28555540 |
| comparative analysis of genomes of tick-borne encephalitis virus strains isolated from mosquitoes and ticks. | the tick-borne encephalitis virus (tbev) strain lazo mp36 was isolated from the pool of mosquitoes aedes vexans collected in lazo region of khabarovsk territory in august 2014. phylogenetic analysis of the strain lazo mp36 complete genome (genbank accession number kt001073) revealed its correspondence to the tbev far eastern subtype and differences from the following strains: 1) from ticks ixodes persulcatus p. schulze, 1930 [vaccine strain 205 (jx498939) and strains khekhtzir 1230 (kf880805), c ... | 2018 | 29323844 |
