Economic assessment of African horse sickness vaccine impact

Elizabeth F. Redmond et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the economic impact of African horse sickness (AHS) and confirmed the hypothesis that investing in a safer, more effective AHS vaccine would generate economic returns. Through a cost-benefit analysis model, it was found that the economic return on investment in bringing a new AHS vaccine to market was predicted to be positive and robust. The main economic beneficiaries would be the high value horse sectors, specifically the equine industries in Republic of South Africa and in non-endemic countries, with additional benefits in poor communities in sub-Saharan Africa where working equids are economically and socially important.

Host preference of bluetongue virus vectors, Culicoides species associated with livestock in West Bengal, India: Potential relevance on bluetongue epidemiology

Surajit Kar et al.

Summary: The host preference of Culicoides midges associated with livestock in India was investigated. The study revealed that all Culicoides species, except for Culicoides fulvus, preferred cattle as their host. Culicoides oxystoma, subgenus Trithecoides, and Culicoides actoni were mainly found on the ventral region of cattle, while Culicoides peregrinus and C. actoni were prevalent in the leg region of sheep. Additionally, the study found human blood in Culicoides trapped in UV-LED light traps.

Summary: This study compared the abundance, diversity, and distribution of Culicoides biting midges in rural and suburban environments in North Africa and examined the influence of bio-climatic factors on their population sizes and elevation distribution. The results showed that elevation was the most important environmental parameter affecting the abundance and distribution of Culicoides midges.

Molecular Identification of Host Blood Meals and Detection of Blood Parasites in Culicoides Latreille (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) Collected from Phatthalung Province, Southern Thailand

Sakone Sunantaraporn et al.

Summary: Biting midges, as small insects that feed on various hosts, have been found to potentially carry harmful pathogens such as Leishmania and Trypanosoma. This study collected biting midges in a leishmaniasis-endemic area in Thailand and found that they had a diversified feeding habit, feeding on cows, dogs, pigs, and avians. The study also detected the presence of avian haemosporidian parasites in the collected midges. Further research is needed to determine if these biting midges can act as natural vectors for trypanosomatid parasites.

Rapid Spread and Genetic Characterisation of a Recently Emerged Recombinant Lumpy Skin Disease Virus in Thailand

Nutthakarn Suwankitwat et al.

Summary: This study provides a comprehensive report on the disease distributions, complete diagnoses, and genetic characterization of LSDV during the first wave of LSD outbreaks in Thailand. The origins of the outbreaks were found to be distant from the center. LSDV was confirmed as the causative virus through real-time PCR, cell culture, and immunohistochemistry. Genetic analysis revealed that the Thai LSDV is a recombinant virus derived from a vaccine strain previously appearing in China and Vietnam.

Summary: This study examined DNA barcoding and host blood source identification in Culicoides biting midges from Thailand, revealing high levels of genetic variation and the possibility of cryptic species in some taxa. Additionally, the study found that some Culicoides taxa fed on chicken blood, which was previously unknown.

Culicoides Latreille (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) as potential vectors for Leishmania martiniquensis and Trypanosoma sp. in northern Thailand

Sakone Sunantaraporn et al.

Summary: Biting midges of genus Culicoides may potentially transmit L. martiniquensis and Trypanosoma parasites in an endemic area of leishmaniasis in northern Thailand. Further studies on the host ranges of Culicoides are needed to understand the potential vectors of emerging leishmaniasis. Identification of the vectors of these parasites is important for effective disease prevention and control programs in Thailand.

Spatial and temporal distribution of Culicoides species in the New England region of New South Wales, Australia between 1990 and 2018

Biniam T. Lakew et al.

Summary: Culicoides marksi and C. austropalpalis were found to be the most abundant and widespread species in the New England region of NSW, Australia, with higher counts observed in the summer season. There was significant geographic variation in abundance for C. marksi, C. austropalpalis, and C. dycei at different altitudes. The study highlighted the importance of temperature and rainfall on the distribution and abundance of Culicoides species in the region.

Summary: Biting midges of the genus Culicoides Latreille were collected from two BTV prevalent provinces in western Thailand, and identified using wing morphology and molecular markers. The most abundant potential BTV vector species identified were Culicoides peregrinus. These results contribute to new knowledge of Culicoides BTV vectors in Thailand and will aid further BTV studies in the region.

Summary: Biting midges of the genus Culicoides are potential biological vectors for arbovirus transmission. A study in the border areas of Yunnan Province, China, collected 405 Culicoides individuals from seven animal farms and detected the presence of major arboviruses, with Bluetongue virus 1 being found in Culicoides oxystoma specimens. The study suggests that C. oxystoma species could play a role in the transmission of Bluetongue virus.
