Species of virus From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dhori virus (DHOV) is a species of the genus Thogotovirus and a member of the family Orthomyxoviridae. Its host is most commonly Ixodidae ticks[1] but can also be other species of ticks, mosquitoes, and mammals (including humans). DHOV is lethal to mice, leads to high rates of miscarriages in sheep and goats,[1] and causes systemic pathologic changes similar to those reported in humans with virulent influenza A (H5N1) virus infection.[2]

Batken virus |
Batken virus (BKNV) is considered a subtype of DHOV. Serological cross-reactions between BKNV and DHOV indicate a phylogenetic relationship between these viruses.[3]
Additionally, in 2014 Bourbon virus (BRBV) was found to be phylogenetically related to DHOV. [4]
Along with the Thogoto Virus (THOV), the Dhori virus is compiled of a single-stranded RNA made up of 6 negative-sense segments. Replication and transcription are done within the nucleus of the cell.[5]
