the multiplication of main drain virus in two species of culicoides (diptera, ceratopogonidae). 19744441256
ovine fetal malformations induced by in utero inoculation with main drain, san angelo, and lacrosse viruses.the teratogenic potential of three bunyaviruses, two california serogroup bunyaviruses, lacrosse virus and san angelo virus, and a bunyamwera serogroup member, main drain virus, in sheep was studied following in utero inoculation of ewes in early gestation. although main drain virus appeared to be most teratogenic, all three viruses induced a range of lesions including arthrogryposis, hydrocephalus, fetal death, axial skeletal deviations, anasarca, and oligohydramnios. the teratogenic effects of ...19979080876
monitoring sheep and culicoides midges in montana for evidence of bunyamwera serogroup virus infection.a serological and entomological investigation was performed to monitor for potential bunyamwera (bun) serogroup virus activity in montana.201426392881
management factors associated with operation-level prevalence of antibodies to cache valley virus and other bunyamwera serogroup viruses in sheep in the united states.a cross-sectional study was performed to identify operation-level risk factors associated with prevalence of antibody to bunyamwera (bun) serogroup viruses in sheep in the united states. sera were obtained from 5150 sheep in 270 operations located in 22 states (three in the west, nine central states, and 10 in the east) and tested at a dilution of 1:20 by a plaque reduction neutralization test (prnt) using cache valley virus (cvv). antibodies that neutralized cvv were identified in 1455 (28%) sh ...201526565774
distribution of bunyamwera serogroup viruses in north america, 1956-1984.we attempted to tabulate all bunyamwera serogroup (family bunyaviridae, genus bunyavirus) isolates from north america. by summarizing information from the laboratories of the centers for disease control, data generously shared by other laboratories, and the published literature, we were able to accumulate data regarding 1,372 bunyamwera serogroup viruses. these were: tensaw (664, including 8 from vertebrates), cache valley (396, including 6 from vertebrates), main drain (160, including 14 from v ...19862869708
main drain virus as a cause of equine encephalomyelitis.main drain virus, which is thought to be transmitted normally among rabbits and various rodents by its natural vector, culicoides variipennis, was isolated repeatedly from brain tissue of a sick horse from sacramento county, california, and was implicated as the causative agent. signs of illness were incoordination and ataxia, stiff neck, head pressing, inability to swallow, fever, and tachycardia.19836413468
natural m-segment reassortment in potosi and main drain viruses: implications for the evolution of orthobunyaviruses.recently, we identified batai virus as the m-segment reassortment partner of ngari virus. extension of genetic analyses to other orthobunyaviruses related to the bunyamwera serogroup indicates additional natural genome reassortments. whereas the relative phylogenetic positions of all three genome segment sequences were similar for northway and kairi viruses, the relative positions of potosi and main drain virus m-segment sequences diverged from those of their s- and l-segments. our findings indi ...200717891328
natural and experimental arboviral infections in a population of blacktail jackrabbits along the sacramento river in butte county, california (1971-1974).a serologic survey of the blacktail jackrabbit ( lepus californicus ) for infections with 10 arboviruses was conducted from 1971 through 1974 along the sacramento river in butte county, california. of 325 animals captured and bled a total of 493 times, 40% were found positive for hemagglutination-inhibiting (hi) antibody to california encephalitis (ce) virus, 34% to western equine encephalomyelitis (wee) virus, 20% to buttonwillow virus, 15% to st. louis encephalitis (sle) virus and 12% to main ...197724228958
