How an arthropod-borne virus manages host switches: exploration of host-specific mutations and gene formula in bluetongue virus

2025-12-04

Abstract excerpt

Arthropod-borne viruses, also known as arboviruses, cause disease worldwide. These viruses alternate between vertebrates and arthropods, facing distinct selection pressures in each host type. Surprisingly, whether specific mechanisms facilitate host alternation remains unclear. Here, we use bluetongue virus (BTV) as a model to investigate two phenomena potentially facilitating host alternation: adaptive mutations...
