Recent studies have provided evidence that endemic pathogens may affect dynamics in animals. However, such studies have not typically considered that infected individuals might have a preceding underlying poor condition. ...

The Orthopoxviruses Vaccinia (VACV) and Cowpox (CPXV) belong to the Poxviridae family, the largest and more complex animal DNA viruses, whose replication occurs in the cytoplasmic compartment of the infected cells. Even ...

We describe a vaccinialike virus, Araçatuba virus, associated with a cowpoxlike outbreak in a dairy herd and a related case of human infection. Diagnosis was based on virus growth characteristics, electron microscopy, and ...

Two vaccinia viruses (VACV) genetically and phenotypically divergent were isolated, in a mixed infection, from a horse lesion during an outbreak of vesicular and exanthematous disease in horses in Southern Brazil and termed ...

The Poxviridae family consists of a complex group of DNA viruses that multiply in the host cell cytoplasm of both vertebrates and invertebrates. It is divided into two subfamilies: Entomopoxvirinae, represented by invertebrate ...
