This contagious RNA virus is a high threat to swine industries throughout the world because it has high mortality and morbidity rates, leading to economic losses. Although some studies have analyzed whole-genome sequences, but often focus on isolates from only a few countries, while others started with whole-genome analysis before narrowing down to specific gene region like E2. In addition, several studies have predominantly focused on isolated geographic regions. Our study leverages a global dataset of 220 CSFV whole-genome sequences retrieved from the NCBI repository along with two CSFV complete genome sequence from our laboratory (Accession Number: MH734359.1 and OR4282229.1) and carefully curated to 66 sequences. The refined dataset was subjected to Bayesian analysis along with selection pressure analysis. The outcome of this experiment, the mean substitution rate was estimated at 2.06 × 10-3 substitutions/site/year with the Highest Posterior Density (HPD) (95% HPD 6.8012 × 10-4 to 3.3044 × 10-3), and the estimated average time to the most recent common ancestor (tMRCA) for the analyzed dataset was the year 1877 (95% HPD 1833.8181-1932.3176). Among the curated dataset, 2 CSFV complete genome sequences (Accession Number: MH734359.1 and OR428229.1) from our laboratory showed a Chinese origin. In addition, pervasive and episodic selection pressure revealed that both had ongoing diversifying natural positive selection, which could lead to increased genetic diversity and possibly emergence of the new lineage. This potential information could be used for future evaluation of strategies to control emerging new genotypes of CSFV with high mortality and morbidity.","PeriodicalId":51212,"journal":{"name":"Virus Genes","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-04-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143812628","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although infections are often covert, they can lead to severe outcomes in the presence of Varroa destructor infestations. This study aims to evaluate the prevalence of ABPV and its correlation with a range of biotic and abiotic stressors in managed beehives located in the Central Anatolia and Mediterranean Regions of Türkiye during the spring-summer and autumn seasons of 2021. ABPV was identified in 38.6% of the samples (27/70) using real-time RT-PCR. The high prevalence observed was linked to Varroa destructor infestations, elevated temperatures and dry climatic conditions, migratory beekeeping practices, and disruptions in colony management during the COVID-19 pandemic. Phylogenetic relationships among ABPV strains were elucidated through partial sequencing of the capsid and RNA-dependent RNA polymerase protein coding genes, employing maximum likelihood tree construction with the Tamura 3-parameter model. Turkish ABPV strains clustered into a distinct subclade, sharing 98.4-99% nucleotide identity with European strains, indicative of a monophyletic origin and geographic segregation at the regional or continental level. These findings highlight the necessity for robust surveillance and research programs to monitor ABPV prevalence and mitigate its detrimental effects on colony health and productivity. Additionally, the phylogenetic insights provided by this study enhance our understanding of the geographic distribution and evolutionary dynamics of ABPV strains, offering critical information for future molecular epidemiological research and apicultural management strategies.","PeriodicalId":51212,"journal":{"name":"Virus Genes","volume":" ","pages":"220-229"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143400727","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In 2022, we conducted mosquito surveillance in the Shandong region of China and discovered a novel virus, tentatively named Gushan virus based on the site of discovery. In this study, a total of 3170 mosquitoes were collected and divided into 62 pools based on species and collection locations. Quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) and nested PCR were employed to detect Gushan virus nucleic acids in all samples. The results revealed that 16 pools were positive, with a minimum infection rate (MIR) of 0.5% (16/3,170). Concurrently, we successfully obtained one complete genome sequence and six partial sequences. Nucleotide homology analysis demonstrated a high degree of sequence identity, indicating that Gushan virus may maintain a stable genetic profile in the region. Phylogenetic analyses revealed that Gushan virus is most closely related to Drosophila immigrans Nora virus of the family Noroviridae.

Our objective was to assess the temporal and epidemiological spread of variants of concern (VOC) of SARS-CoV-2 in the four weeks preceding the massive vaccination campaign in the municipality. After randomizing 400 samples, Next-Generation Sequencing was used to produce sequences and determine the variants. Among high-quality sequences, 98.4% belonged to the VOC Gamma, with P.1 and P.1.14 being the most prevalent lineages. P.1 was more frequent in both men and women, and in younger individuals and adults (0-59 years) compared to P.1.14. There was no correlation between the variants and the presence of comorbidities or between them and moderate to severe clinical cases of COVID-19 or death. However, P.1 was more frequent than P.1.14 in people with mild forms of the disease and in those who exhibited symptoms. In the phylogenetic analyses, a small cluster of 9 P.1.14 samples containing mutations in ORF1a: M584V and A3620V was observed, which had not been found in any Gamma sequences to date.
