Flavivirus, renamed Orthoflavivirus in 2023, [3] is a genus of positive-strand RNA viruses in the family Flaviviridae.The genus includes the West Nile virus, dengue virus, tick-borne encephalitis virus, yellow fever virus, Zika virus and several other viruses which may cause encephalitis, [4] as well as insect-specific flaviviruses (ISFs) such as cell fusing agent virus (CFAV), Palm Creek ...
Orthopoxvirus is a genus of viruses in the family Poxviridae and subfamily Chordopoxvirinae.Vertebrates, including mammals and humans, and arthropods serve as natural hosts. . There are 12 species in this gen
There is tenuous evidence that a virus common to peppers, the Pepper Mild Mottle Virus (PMMoV) may have moved on to infect humans. [9] This is a rare and unlikely event as, to enter a cell and replicate, a virus must "bind to a receptor on its surface, and a plant virus would be highly unlikely to recognize a receptor on a human cell.
Nipah virus infection is an infection caused by the Nipah virus. Symptoms from infection vary from none to fever , cough, headache, shortness of breath , and confusion. This may worsen into a coma over a day or two, and 50% to 75% of those infected die.
Citrus leprosis virus nuclear type (CiLV-N) is found in the nuclei and cytoplasm of infected cells, while Citrus leprosis virus cytoplasmic type (CiLV-C) is found in the endoplasmic reticulum. In 2012, a new virus causing similar symptoms was found in Colombia and it was named Citrus leprosis virus cytoplasmic type 2 (CiLV-C2) due to its close ...
Brome mosaic virus (BMV) is a small (28 nm, 86S), positive-stranded, icosahedral RNA plant virus belonging to the genus Bromovirus, family Bromoviridae, in the Alphavirus-like superfamily. BMV was first isolated in 1942 from bromegrass ( Bromus inermis ), [ 2 ] had its genomic organization determined by the 1970s, and was completely sequenced ...
The virus is transmitted by mosquitoes (Culex and Culiseta). SINV is linked to Pogosta disease [3] , Ockelbo disease and Karelian fever . In humans, the symptoms include arthralgia, rash and malaise. Sindbis virus is widely and continuously found in insects and vertebrates in Eurasia, Africa, and Oceania.
Barmah Forest virus is an RNA virus in the genus Alphavirus. This disease was named after the Barmah Forest in the northern Victoria region of Australia , where it was first isolated in 1974. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] It is passed to vertebrate hosts almost exclusively by mosquitoes, [ 4 ] the first case in humans being documented in 1986. [ 5 ]
