| razdan virus, a new ungrouped bunyavirus isolated from dermacentor marginatus ticks in armenia. | a virus, designated razdan, was isolated from dermacentor marginatus ticks in the armenian s.s.r. in 1973. the complement fixation tests revealed no antigenic relationships to 74 tick-borne arboviruses. the size of the virus is about 100 nm; it agglutinates goose erythrocytes at ph 5.5--7.0, is pathogenic for newborn, 14-day-old and adult white mice and multiplies in primary and continuous cell cultures. morphological properties of the virus permit its classification as a member of the family bu ... | 1978 | 35950 |
| [molecular-genetic characterization of the bhanja virus (bhav) and the razdan virus (razv) (bunyaviridae, phlebovirus) isolated from the ixodes ticks rhipicephalus bursa (canestrini and fanzago, 1878) and dermacentor marginatus (sulzer, 1776) in transcaucasus]. | two bunyaviruses, bhanja (bhav, leiv-az1818) isolated from the ixodes ticks rhipecephalus bursa (canestrini and fanzago, 1878) in azerbaijan (1973) and razdan (razv; strain leiv-arm2741) isolated from the dermacentor marginatus (sulzer, 1776) ticks in armenia (1972), were de novo sequenced (on the illumina platform). the amino acid identity between these viruses proteins were 95.8% (rdrp, l-segment), 90.3% (gngc, m-segment), and 92.5% (n, s-segment). thus, razv was classified to bhav group. gngc ... | 2016 | 24354060 |
