Publication date Category / type Key finding PMID
2026-07-23 Genomic Evolution Phylogenetic Evolution Phylogenetic analysis showed G8 RVA strains clustering within multi-host-associated lineages that include bovine-like human and caprine strains, while G6 strains clustered within more host-restricted bovine lineages. 42492859
2026-07-23 Zoonotic Surveillance Viral Detection Group A rotaviruses (RVA) were detected in fatal neonatal calf diarrhoea cases in Türkiye and molecularly characterised by VP7, VP4, and VP6 genotyping. 42492859
2026-07-18 Experimental Infection Host Range Experiment Intramammary exposure to bovine-derived H5N1 causes productive infection in lactating sows despite prior vaccination. 42523357
2026-07-10 Zoonotic Surveillance Viral Detection HPAI H5N1 was identified in a Wisconsin dairy herd in December 2025 through the National Milk Testing Strategy. 42429628
2026-07-06 Experimental Infection Host Range Experiment Bovine H5N1 (HPAI 2.3.4.4b genotype B3.13) replicates efficiently in porcine mammary gland and respiratory tract cells. 42405777
2026-07-02 Zoonotic Surveillance Reservoir Ecology Naturally infected cattle shed HPAIV H5N1 extensively in milk, indicating the bovine mammary gland as a site of viral replication relevant to circulation in dairy herds. 42390302
2026-06 Zoonotic Surveillance Reservoir Ecology Highly pathogenic avian influenza virus (HPAIV) H5N1 clade 2.3.4.4b spilled over from wild birds to dairy cattle in the United States, affecting more than 1000 herds. 41819722
2026-06 Genomic Evolution Phylogenetic Evolution Phylogenetic analysis showed that BVDV‑1a sequences from small ruminants in Türkiye clustered closely with Turkish cattle strains, indicating evolutionary relatedness between bovine and ovine viruses. 41917271
2026-06 Genomic Evolution Phylogenetic Evolution Phylogenetic analysis revealed BVDV‑1a from sheep to be closely related to Turkish cattle strains, indicating cross‑species transmission between cattle and sheep. 41917271
2026-06 Zoonotic Surveillance Reservoir Ecology A quantitative model predicted potential spillover introductions of HPAIV H5N1 from wild birds to cattle in Denmark, with estimated rates below 0.35 cases per week. 41819722
2026-05-24 Experimental Infection Pathogenicity Experiment High-dose intramammary inoculation of influenza A(H5N1) caused severe disease and mortality in experimentally infected dairy cows. 42177170
2026-05-17 Zoonotic Surveillance Serological Evidence BVDV-specific antibodies were detected in 15.9% of cattle serum samples from mixed herds in southern Bangladesh. 42161068
2026-05-17 Zoonotic Surveillance Viral Detection Genetically related BVDV-1, BVDV-2, and HoBi-like viruses were detected in both cattle and water buffalo within mixed herds in southern Bangladesh, indicating cross-species transmission and co-circulation between these bovine hosts. 42161068
2026-05-17 Zoonotic Surveillance Viral Detection BVDV-1 RNA was detected by RT-qPCR in blood samples from cattle and water-buffalo in mixed herds in the southern region of Bangladesh, and 5'-UTR sequencing identified multiple BVDV-1 subgenotypes. 42161068
2026-05-17 Genomic Evolution Phylogenetic Evolution Phylogenetic analysis of 5'-UTR sequences revealed eight BVDV-1 subgenotypes co-circulating in cattle and water buffalo in Bangladesh with high nucleotide identity. 42161068
2026-05-17 Zoonotic Surveillance Virus Isolation Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) was isolated from cattle and water-buffalo samples using the MDBK cell line, with cytopathic and non-cytopathic biotypes identified. 42161068
2026-05-17 Zoonotic Surveillance Viral Detection HoBi-like pestivirus RNA was detected by RT-qPCR in blood samples from cattle and water-buffalo in mixed herds in the southern region of Bangladesh, confirmed by sequencing as subgenotype HoBiPeV-a. 42161068
2026-05-17 Zoonotic Surveillance Viral Detection BVDV-2 RNA was detected by RT-qPCR in blood samples from cattle and water-buffalo in mixed herds in the southern region of Bangladesh, and sequencing identified subgenotype BVDV-2a. 42161068
2026-05 Transmission Evidence Outbreak Investigation An outbreak investigation in March–April 2024 examined a morbidity event in dairy cows in the Texas Panhandle and eastern New Mexico, during which milk samples tested positive for highly pathogenic avian influenza virus H5N1. 41703951
2026-05 Zoonotic Surveillance Viral Detection Feces, serum, and whole blood from affected cows tested negative for H5N1 HPAIV. 41703951
2026-05 Zoonotic Surveillance Viral Detection The United States Department of Agriculture confirmed HPAIV in unpasteurized milk from dairy cows in the region. 41703951
