Novel Bluetongue Virus Serotype from Kuwait
نویسندگان
چکیده
Sheep and goats sampled in Kuwait during February 2010 were seropositive for bluetongue virus (BTV). BTV isolate KUW2010/02, from 1 of only 2 sheep that also tested positive for BTV by real-time reverse transcription-PCR, caused mild clinical signs in sheep. Nucleotide sequencing identified KUW2010/02 as a novel BTV serotype.

Complete Coding Genome Sequence of Putative Novel Bluetongue Virus Serotype 27
We announce the complete coding genome sequence of a novel bluetongue virus (BTV) serotype (BTV-n = putative BTV-27) detected in goats in Corsica, France, in 2014. Sequence analysis confirmed the closest relationship between sequences of the novel BTV serotype and BTV-25 and BTV-26, recently discovered in Switzerland and Kuwait, respectively.
متن کاملNovel Bluetongue Virus in Goats, Corsica, France, 2014
During 2000-2013, 4 genotypes of bluetongue virus (BTV) were detected in Corsica, France. At the end of 2013, a compulsory BTV-1 vaccination campaign was initiated among domestic ruminants; biological samples from goats were tested as part of a corresponding monitoring program. A BTV strain with nucleotide sequences suggestive of a novel serotype was detected.
متن کاملGenome Sequence of Bluetongue virus Serotype 17 Isolated in Brazil in 2014
The complete genome sequence of Bluetongue virus (BTV) serotype 17 strain 17/BRA/2014/73, isolated from a sheep in Brazil in 2014, is reported here. All segments clustered with western topotype strains and indicated reassortment events with other BTV from the Americas. The strain 17/BRA/2014/73 represents a novel reference strain for BTV-17 from South America.
متن کاملBluetongue Virus Serotypes 1 and 4 in Red Deer, Spain
We studied the potential of red deer as bluetongue maintenance hosts and sentinels. Deer maintained detectable bluetongue virus (BTV) serotype 4 RNA for 1 year after the virus was cleared from livestock. However, the virus was not transmitted to yearlings. BTV serotype 1 RNA was detected in red deer immediately after its first detection in cattle.
متن کاملThe complete nucleotide sequence of genome segment 7 of bluetongue virus, serotype 1 from South Africa.
The complete sequence of genome segment 7, of bluetongue was 98.3% identity and 98.9% similarity (including conservative virus, serotype 1 South Africa (BTV1SA), which encodes the changes). serogroup-specific antigen, VP7 (1), was determined from a full length cDNA clone synthesized using terminal oligonucleotides REFERENCES as primers (2). Genome segment 7 from BTV1SA is the same length as the...
