Detection and Genomic Characterization of Heartland and Bourbon Viruses in Amblyomma americanum ticks from Nebraska

2026-08-10

Abstract excerpt

Heartland virus (HRTV) and Bourbon virus (BRBV) are emerging tick-borne arboviruses transmitted by the lone star tick (Amblyomma americanum) that have caused dozens of cases of human disease in the United States, including multiple fatalities. Despite their significance, entomological, clinical, and molecular surveillance remains sparse, limiting our understanding of HRTV and BRBV distribution and risk. The Nebras...
