Oropouche virus (OROV), genus Orthobunyavirus, family Bunyaviridae, is an important cause of human illness in tropical South America. Herein, we report the isolation, complete genome sequence, genetic characterization, and phylogenetic... more
A combination of interferon-beta (IFN-beta) and all-trans retinoic acid (IFN/RA) induces tumor cell apoptosis via some unknown mechanisms. Apoptosis is a gene-directed process that limits the proliferation of undesired cells. Several... more
Pepper, Capsicum annuum L., is an economically important crop in Zimbabwe, grown as a spice and vegetable for both the local and export markets. Pepper is susceptible to infection by up to 49 virus species, some of which cause serious... more

Aims Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) is an emerging tick-borne infectious disease. SFTS is epidemic in Asia, and its fatality rate is around 30% in Japan. The causative virus severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome... more
Hantaviruses are the causative agents of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome in humans in the Americas; The primary reservoirs are in the rodents of the subfamily Sigmodontinae. In South America, cases of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome caused by... more
Aedes albopictuswas introduced into the United States in used tires in 1985. Its successful colonization of the upper Midwest has potential to alter the current epidemiology of bunyaviruses that circulate in the region. It is permissive... more
European mountain ash ringspot-associated virus (EMARAV) was recently characterized from mountain ash (rowan) (Sorbus aucuparia) in Germany. The virus belongs tentatively to family Bunyaviridae but is not closely related to any classified... more
The entire M RNA segment of the phlebovirus Rift Valley fever virus (RVFV) has been molecularly cloned and the complete nucleotide sequence determined. The RNA is 3884 nucleotides in length, corresponding to a molecular weight of 1.38 ×... more
Schmallenberg virus (SBV), an arbovirus within the family Bunyaviridae, represents a ruminant pathogen that has caused epidemic abortion and birth of malformed or stillborn animals in many European countries since August 2011.... more

Reproductive disorders in dairy cattle have been noted to be common in urban and peri-urban dairy production system in Ethiopia. The available reports on the causes of these disorders, however, are not conclusive. A case-control study was... more
The Mapputta group comprises antigenically related viruses indigenous to Australia and Papua New Guinea that are included in the family Bunyaviridae but not currently assigned to a specific genus. We determined and analyzed the genome... more
Adult golden hamsters inoculated subcutaneously with either of two sandfly fever group viruses, Punta Toro and Gabek Forest (Phlebovirus, Bunyaviridae), developed a fulminating fatal illness characterized by hepatic and splenic necrosis... more
