Animal Picobirnavirus

TL;DR: Pereira et al. as mentioned in this paper presented a review of the veterinary and zoonotic aspects of animal Picobirnavirus infections since its discovery, focusing on the potential role of PBV as either a primary diarrhoeal agent or a potential pathogen in "immunocompetent individuals" or an "innocuous virus" in the intestine.
Journal ArticleDOI

Picobirnavirus infections: viral persistence and zoonotic potential

TL;DR: The public health aspects of PBV infection, especially its possible association with zoonosis is analyzed, as well as evidence has been found for genetic relatedness between human and animalPBV strains, suggesting extant crossing points in the ecology and evolution of heterologous PBV strains.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rotavirus seasonality in urban sewage from Argentina: Effect of meteorological variables on the viral load and the genetic diversity

TL;DR: It is pointed out that weather factors alone cannot explain the seasonal quantitative pattern of the rotavirus disease, and alternative transmission routes, changes in human behavior and susceptibility, and the stability and survivability of the virus might all together contribute to the seasonality of rotav virus.
Journal ArticleDOI

Picobirnavirus causes persistent infection in pigs.

TL;DR: The results suggest that porcine PBV is maintained in nature by transmission from infected asymptomatic individuals to susceptible ones.
