European Aedes caspius mosquitoes are experimentally unable to transmit Zika virus
(BMC, 2019-07-25)
Background: Aedes caspius (Pallas, 1771) is a foodwater mosquito species widely distributed in the Western Palae‑
arctic. As an anthropophilic species, its role as an arbovirus vector may be the key ...
A novel optical sensor system for the automatic classification of mosquitoes by genus and sex with high levels of accuracy
(BMC, 2022-06-06)
Background: Every year, more than 700,000 people die from vector-borne diseases, mainly transmitted by mosqui‑
toes. Vector surveillance plays a major role in the control of these diseases and requires ...
Widespread Circulation of Flaviviruses in Horses and Birds in Northeastern Spain (Catalonia) between 2010 and 2019
(MDPI, 2021-11-30)
The surveillance for West Nile virus (WNV) in Catalonia (northeastern Spain) has consistently detected flaviviruses not identified as WNV. With the aim of characterizing the flaviviruses
circulating ...
Pathogenesis and transmissibility of highly (H7N1) and low (H7N9) pathogenic avian influenza virus infection in red-legged partridge (Alectoris rufa)
(BMC, 2011-02-07)
An experimental infection with highly pathogenic avian influenza virus (HPAIV) and low pathogenic avian influenza
virus (LPAIV) was carried out in red-legged partridges (Alectoris rufa) in order to ...
The Role of Birds of Prey in West Nile Virus Epidemiology
(MDPI, 2020-09-21)
Reported human cases of West Nile virus (WNV) in Europe increased dramatically in
2018. Lineage 1 strains had been circulating in Euro-Mediterranean countries since the early 1990s.
The subsequent ...
Neuropathogenesis of a highly pathogenic avian influenza virus (H7N1) in experimentally infected chickens
(BMC, 2011-10-07)
In order to understand the mechanism of neuroinvasion of a highly pathogenic avian influenza virus (HPAIV) into
the central nervous system (CNS) of chickens, specific pathogen free chickens were ...
Exposure to a Low Pathogenic A/H7N2 Virus in Chickens Protects against Highly Pathogenic A/H7N1 Virus but Not against Subsequent Infection with A/H5N1
(Public Library of Science, 2013-03-04)
Recent evidences have demonstrated that the presence of low pathogenic avian influenza viruses (LPAIV) may play an important role in host ecology and transmission of avian influenza viruses (AIV). While ...
Neuroinvasion of the Highly Pathogenic Influenza Virus H7N1 Is Caused by Disruption of the Blood Brain Barrier in an Avian Model
(Public Library of Science, 2014-12-15)
Influenza A virus (IAV) causes central nervous system (CNS) lesions in avian and mammalian species, including humans. However, the mechanism used by IAV to invade the brain has not been determined. In ...
The NS segment of H5N1 avian influenza viruses (AIV) enhances the virulence of an H7N1 AIV in chickens
(BMC, 2014-01-25)
Some outbreaks involving highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses (HPAIV) of subtypes H5 and H7 were caused by avian-to-human transmissions. In nature, different influenza A viruses can reassort leading ...
Circulation of a Meaban-Like Virus in Yellow-Legged Gulls and Seabird Ticks in the Western Mediterranean Basin
(Public Library of Science, 2014-03-13)
In recent years, a number of zoonotic flaviviruses have emerged worldwide, and wild birds serve as their major reservoirs. Epidemiological surveys of bird populations at various geographical scales can ...
