Infections with viruses of the order NIDOVIRALES. The concept includes ARTERIVIRUS INFECTIONS and CORONAVIRIDAE INFECTIONS.
An order comprising three families of eukaryotic viruses possessing linear, nonsegmented, positive sense RNA genomes. The families are CORONAVIRIDAE; ARTERIVIRIDAE; and RONIVIRIDAE.
The type species of the genus ARTERIVIRUS and the etiologic agent of an important equine respiratory disease causing abortion, pneumonia, or other infections.
A genus of the family CORONAVIRIDAE characterized by enveloped, peplomer-bearing particles containing an elongated tubular nucleocapsid with helical symmetry. Toroviruses have been found in association with enteric infections in horses (Berne virus), cattle (Breda virus), swine, and humans. Transmission probably takes place via the fecal-oral route.

High-throughput virus-induced gene-silencing approach to assess the functional relevance of a moisture stress-induced cDNA homologous to lea4. (1/4)

The abiotic stress-responsive cDNA database and their expression profiles suggest that stress genes are many and diverse. However, characterization and validation of their functional significance has been a constraint to assessing their role in imparting tolerance. Virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) is a potential option for assessing the functional significance of stress genes. Here the effectiveness of VIGS to silence the expression of an ABA-responsive lea4 (late embryogenic abundant) gene involved in stress tolerance is documented. In the present study, low moisture-stress protocols were developed in such a way that the plants experienced the desired stress level when silencing the target stress gene using VIGS was at a maximum. The functional relevance of a groundnut (Arachis hypogaea) subtracted-stress cDNA clone putative lea4 was examined by VIGS in tomato. A 400 bp fragment of lea4 was cloned into tobacco rattle virus-based VIGS vector to trigger post-transcriptional gene silencing by Agrobacterium-mediated inoculation in tomato plants. In silenced plants only lea4 transcripts showed a substantial decline, whereas the expression of other known stress-responsive genes such as apx (ascorbate peroxidase) and elip (early light-induced protein) were unaltered. Under moderate moisture stress, the silenced plants showed enhanced susceptibility as measured by cell viability, superoxide radical activity, and cell osmotic adjustment. This approach illustrates the potential benefits of VIGS in identifying functional relevance of low moisture stress-responsive genes. It is also demonstrated that heterologous probes with a fairly high degree of homology to the native genes can be used to study the functional relevance of stress-responsive genes using VIGS.  (+info)

Nidovirales is an order of viruses that includes important human and animal pathogens, such as coronaviruses and arteriviruses. A "Nidovirales infection" refers to the condition where an individual or animal is infected with a virus belonging to this order. These infections can cause a wide range of symptoms depending on the specific virus and the host's immune response.

Coronaviruses, for example, can cause respiratory illnesses in humans, ranging from the common cold to more severe diseases such as Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS). In animals, coronaviruses can cause gastrointestinal diseases, such as feline infectious peritonitis in cats and transmissible gastroenteritis in pigs.

Arteriviruses, on the other hand, primarily infect animals and can cause respiratory and reproductive diseases. Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) is a significant disease caused by an arterivirus in pigs, resulting in significant economic losses to the swine industry worldwide.

In summary, Nidovirales infections refer to the condition where an individual or animal is infected with a virus belonging to the order Nidovirales, which can cause a range of symptoms depending on the specific virus and the host's immune response.

Nidovirales is an order of viruses that includes important pathogens such as coronaviruses and arteriviruses. These viruses are characterized by their large, complex genomes and the production of nested sets of subgenomic mRNAs during replication. They have a positive-sense, single-stranded RNA genome and are enveloped. The name "Nidovirales" is derived from the Latin word "nidus," meaning "nest," which refers to the nested set of subgenomic mRNAs produced during replication.

Coronaviruses, which include well-known human pathogens such as SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 (which causes COVID-19), primarily infect the respiratory tract and can cause a range of symptoms from mild cold-like illness to severe pneumonia.

Arteriviruses, on the other hand, mainly infect animals and are associated with diseases such as porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) in pigs and simian hemorrhagic fever in non-human primates.

It's important to note that Nidovirales have a high potential for cross-species transmission, which can lead to the emergence of new viruses with the ability to infect humans and cause disease.

I'm sorry for any confusion, but there seems to be a mistake in your question. "Arteritis Virus, Equine" is not a recognized medical term or virus in humans or animals. There is a condition called "Equine Viral Arteritis (EVA)," which is a viral disease that affects horses and other equine species. However, it does not affect humans.

Equine Viral Arteritis (EVA) is caused by the Equine Arteritis Virus (EAV). This virus primarily affects the respiratory system and can cause symptoms such as fever, lethargy, loss of appetite, and a runny nose in infected horses. In some cases, it may also lead to inflammation of the lining of blood vessels (vasculitis), which can result in abortion in pregnant mares or infertility in stallions.

It's essential to maintain proper biosecurity measures when dealing with horses, especially those that have been exposed to EVA, to prevent its spread and protect the health of other equine populations.

Torovirus is a genus of viruses in the family Coronaviridae. It is a single-stranded, positive-sense RNA virus that primarily infects the epithelial cells of the intestinal tract of various animals, including humans. In humans, torovirus infection can cause gastroenteritis, characterized by diarrhea, vomiting, and abdominal cramps. The virus is transmitted through the fecal-oral route and is highly contagious. Torovirus infections are more common in young children and immunocompromised individuals.
