A high genetic diversity, mutations in important neutralizing epitopes paired with suboptimal vaccination, various levels of clinical responses of poultry and wild birds to virulent strains, strains with new cleavage sites, and other genetic modifications found in these genotypes tend to undermine and complicate NDV management in Africa.
Evolutionary history and dynamics of dog rabies virus in western and central Africa.
A detailed analysis of the phylogeographical structure of this Africa 2 lineage revealed strong population subdivision at the country level, with only limited movement of virus among localities, including a possible east-to-west spread across Africa.

Phylogenetic analysis based on the amino acid sequence of the polyprotein showed that the three ZIKV strains clustered together but diverged from all other ZikV strains, suggesting that a different subtype of West African ZIKv strains circulated in Aedes species in Central Africa.
Urgent need for a non-discriminatory and non-stigmatizing nomenclature for monkeypox virus

A novel, non-discriminatory classification of monkeypox virus diversity is proposed and multiple lineages are identified within IIb, the cause of the current global outbreak, to support real-time genomic surveillance.

The RT-qPCR assay is a powerful tool for reference or diagnostic laboratories with real-time PCR capability, while the isothermal RT-tHDA assay represents a useful alternative to earlier amplification techniques for the molecular diagnosis of yellow fever by field or point-of-care laboratories.
