Changes in some biophysical characteristics of African horsesickness virus (no. 3922) during attenuation
African horsesickness virus (No.3922, Type 7), attenuated for the horse by serial passage in suckling mouse brain, was studied at various passage levels to determine whether any change in the biophysical characters of the infectious particles had occurred. during the process of attenuation. Such …

The characterisation of aspects related to the single stranded RNA binding ability of African horsesickness virus nonstructural protein NS2
African horsesickness virus (AHSV) is a member of the Orbivirus genus and part of the family Reoviridae. It is a double stranded RNA virus with ten genome segments that encode seven structural and four nonstructural proteins. AHSV nonstructural protein NS2, encoded by segment eight, is a single …

Characterization and sequence variation of the virulence-associated proteins of different tissue culture isolates of African Horsesickness virus serotype 4
African horsesickness, a disease of equines caused by African horsesickness virus (AHSV), is often fatal, although the pathogenic effect in different animals is variable. Current AHSV vaccines are live attenuated viruses generated by serial passage in cell culture. This process affects virus plaque …

Development of a single real-time RT-PCR method for the group-specific identification of African horsesickness virus and bluetongue virus
African horsesickness is an infectious but non-contagious disease caused by an orbivirus belonging to the Reoviridae family. The disease is classified as notifiable by the OlE because of the potential severe economic consequences that can result from outbreaks. Bluetongue, an arthropod-transmitted …
