TLDR
A PBV strain, PBV/Horse/India/BG-Eq-3/2010, was identified in the faeces of a 10 month old weaned female foal with diarrhoea in January 2010 from Kolkata, India and sequence comparison and phylogenetic analysis revealed close genetic relatedness to a human genogroup IPBV strain detected earlier from the same part of India.Citations

Water quality indicators: bacteria, coliphages, enteric viruses
Johnson Lin,Atheesha Ganesh +1 more
TL;DR: The potential of human pathogenic viruses as significant indicators of water quality is emerging and has been proposed as suitable indices for the effective identification of such organisms of human origin contaminating water systems.

TL;DR: The number of viruses found in horses is expanded, and their genomes are characterized to assist future epidemiological studies of their transmission and potential association with various equine diseases.

Epidemiology, phylogeny, and evolution of emerging enteric Picobirnaviruses of animal origin and their relationship to human strains.

TL;DR: Although, PBVs may have an ambiguous clinical implication, they do pose a potential public health concern in humans and control of PBVs mainly relies on nonvaccinal approach.
Journal ArticleDOI
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.

Picobirnavirus infections: viral persistence and zoonotic potential
Balasubramanian Ganesh,Krisztián Bányai,Vito Martella,Ferenc Jakab,Gisela Masachessi,Nobumichi Kobayashi +5 more
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.

TL;DR: The short genome profile PBVs associated with acute watery diarrhoea may be another emerging diarrhoeagenic virus in Kolkata, India, where four PBV positives of Genogroup II were detected during this study.

Identification in porcine faeces of a novel virus with a bisegmented double stranded RNA genome.
TL;DR: The results confirm the circulation among pigs of a novel virus, possibly of vertebrates, with a bisegmented double stranded RNA genome, similar to viruses previously described in humans, wild rats, guinea pigs, pigs, and chickens, for which the name “picobirnavirus” has been proposed.
Short Communication Genogroup I picobirnaviruses in pigs: evidence for genetic diversity and relatedness to human strains
TL;DR: The molecular analysis of porcine PBVs identified in the intestinal content of dead pigs suggested that PBVs exist as quasispecies in the swine alimentary tract and indicated that infection with genogroup I PBVs is common in pigs.

TL;DR: Viruses similar to the bisegmented double-stranded (ds) RNA picobirnaviruses described in human faeces and the intestinal contents of Oryzomys nigripes rats and guinea pigs were isolated from the Faeces of pigs taken from several areas in the state of Sao Paulo, Brazil.

TL;DR: It is suggested that PBVs are widespread in animals and could have a similar excretion behavior to that previously detected in infected humans.
