First complete coding sequence of a Venezuelan Equine Encephalitis Virus Strain Isolated from an Equine Encephalitis case in Costa Rica
(Microbiol Resour Announc, 2019-09-05)
The first complete coding sequence of the Venezuelan equine encepha-
litis virus IE, isolated from a Costa Rican mare with severe encephalitis, was con-
firmed by histological and viral whole-genome analyses. The isolated ...
Analysis of ORF5 sequences of Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome virus (PRRSV) circulating within swine farms in Costa Rica
(BMC Veterinary Research, 2021-06-12)
Background: Worldwide, Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome (PRRS) is among the diseases that cause
the highest economic impact in modern pig production. PRRS was first detected in Costa Rica in 1996 and has
since ...

Phylogenetic and Mutation Analysis of the Venezuelan Equine Encephalitis Virus Sequence Isolated in Costa Rica from a Mare with Encephalitis
(MDPI, 2022-05-28)
Venezuelan Equine Encephalitis virus (VEEV) is an arboviral pathogen in tropical America
that causes lethal encephalitis in horses and humans. VEEV is classified into six subtypes (I to VI).
Subtype I viruses are divided ...
Absence of IgG antibodies against Schmallenberg virus in ruminant sera (bovine, goat and sheep) collected in Costa Rica between 2012 and 2014.
(Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica, 2017-07)
Schmallenberg virus affects ruminants, which causes significant economic losses. The virus is transmitted
through vectors of the genus Culicoides; however, other studies do not rule out the possibility of sexual
transmission ...
Detection of Venezuelan Equine Encephalitis Virus from Brain Samples of Equines with Encephalitis
(MDPI, 2023)
Alphavirus species are globally distributed zoonoses primarily transmitted by arthropods. The Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus (VEEV) and Eastern equine encephalitis virus (EEEV) are endemic in Costa Rica. This study ...
Characterization of PRRSV and dynamics of the virus in swine farms in Costa Rica
(Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica, 2018)
The Porcine ReproducPve and Respiratory Syndrome (PRRS) was first
recognized clinically in the EU in 1987, and thereaYer it spread through
Europe and America. The virus has two genotypes: ...
