pteropine orthoreovirus infection among out-patients with acute upper respiratory tract infection in malaysia.	this study aims to assess the incidence rate of pteropine orthreovirus (prv) infection in patients with acute upper respiratory tract infection (urti) in a suburban setting in malaysia, where bats are known to be present in the neighborhood. using molecular detection of prvs directly from oropharyngeal swabs, our study demonstrates that prv is among one of the common causative agents of acute urti with cough and sore throat as the commonest presenting clinical features. phylogenetic analysis on ...	2015	26106066
evolutionary relationship of the l- and m-class genome segments of bat-borne fusogenic orthoreoviruses in malaysia and australia.	we previously described three new malaysian orthoreoviruses designated pulau virus, melaka virus and kampar virus. melaka and kampar viruses were shown to cause respiratory disease in humans. these viruses, together with nelson bay virus, isolated from australian bats, are tentatively classified as different strains within the species pteropine orthoreovirus (prv), formerly known as nelson bay orthoreovirus, based on the small (s) genome segments. here we report the sequences of the large (l) an ...	2011	21849518
