This study reports the use of intra-host viral sequence data from horses infected with equine influenza virus (EIV) to reconstruct the spread of EIV during a large outbreak and infer a plausible transmission network.
Characterisation of EIV Transmission
Mosquito Anti-viral Defence
The results of this study indicate that the phenoloxidase (PO) cascade of mosquitoes plays an important role in immune defence against arboviruses.
Herpes Tail-like Structure
This study reveals a previously unsuspected feature at the portal vertex of human herpes simplex type-1 (HSV-1) virions which may play a role in genome release and virion architecture.
