Biting midges are one of the most common hematophagous insects. They are capable of transmitting a wide range of arboviruses and have a significant impact on public health and veterinary medicine. Herein, from midge samples collected in 2013 in Yunnan, China, one sample induced a cell cytopathic effect (CPE) in BHK-21, MA104, and PK15 cell lines. Next-generation sequencing data, RACE and PCR determined the genome sequence of the sample and designated as an Oya virus (OYAV) isolate SZC50. Phylogenetic analysis of the sample revealed that it was cluster into viruses from species Orthobunyavirus catqueense. The open reading frames of S, M, and L segment of OYAV SZC50 were closest to those of OYAV SC0806. Moreover, 831 serum samples (736 pigs, 45 cattle, and 50 sheep) were gathered from 13 cities in Yunnan Province to detect neutralizing antibody of OYAV SZC50. A significant proportion of OYAV SZC50 antibody (more than 30%) was found in Yunnan pig populations, with the positive rate of OYAV SZC50 antibody in pigs from Malipo reaching 95%. To determine the pathogenicity of OYAV SZC50, we chose three animal models: specific pathogen-free Kunming mice, C57BL/6 mice lacking the interferon α/β receptor, and chicken embryos. At 5, 6, and 7 days post-infection, all adult and suckling C57BL/6 mice, and specific pathogen-free suckling Kunming mice were dead. Our finding was expanding the knowledge about the infection and pathogenic risk of the neglected virus in the Orthobunyavirus. Author summary: Culicoides are an important component of arbovirus ecology and should be studied and watched over in order to the potential spread of emerging and re-emerging viruses. A novel OYAV isolate (SZC50), isolated from midge samples was sequenced in this study, and the virus's putative host tropism was also tested in vitro, and cell lines derived from pig showed a highly susceptible to OYAV SZC50. Notably, high prevalence of OYAV SZC50 neutralization antibody was found in Yunnan pig serum samples. Moreover, the pathogenicity of OYAV SZC50 in animal models was first shown using mice and chicken embryos. Adult C57BL/6 and suckling mice were shown to be extremely sensitive to OYAV SZC50 infection, in contrast to adult Kunming mice, who can survive following infection. The maximum fatality rate of chicken embryos was 37.5%. In summary, regarding the potential infection risk of OYAV to animal or human, systematic investigation of OYAV, its vector and reservoir in nature should be conducted. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Dermatophagoides farinae is an important source of indoor allergens that shows strong tolerance to external temperatures. However, the regularity and mechanism of tolerance are still unclear. Based on our previous RNA-seq and annotation of D. farinae under temperature stress, it is planned to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) involved in the temperature stress response by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). However, the lack of reference genes directly limited the detection and confirmation of DEGs. Accordingly, in this study, we have selected six candidates as reference genes in D. farinae : 60S RP L11, 60S RP L21, α tubulin, GAPDH, Der f Mal f 6, and calreticulin, and evaluated their expression stabilities as affected by heat and cold stresses, using geNorm, NormFinder, BestKeeper, comparative ΔCt and RefFinder methods. Then the expression level of 15 DEGs were detected and verified. geNorm analysis showed that α tubulin and calreticulin were the most stable reference genes under heat stress and cold stress of D. farinae. Similar evaluation results were obtained by NormFinder and BestKeeper, in which 60S RP L21 and α tubulin were the most stable reference genes. By comparative ΔCt method and a comprehensive evaluation of RefFinder, α tubulin was identified as the most ideal reference gene of D. farinae under heat and cold stresses. Furthermore, qRT-PCR detection results of 15 DEGs were almost identical to the RNA-seq results, indicating that α tubulin is stable as a reference gene. This study provided technical support for DEGs expression studies in D. farinae using qRT-PCR. Image 1 • Six genes with relatively stable expression in RNA-seq were selected as candidate reference genes ensure the comparability and scientificity of the experimental design. • The stability of candidate genes were evaluated by five methods geNorm, NormFinder, BestKeeper, comparative ΔCt and RefFinder ensured reliability. • The amplification efficiencies of the reference and target genes were evaluated simultaneously to confirm feasibility of the 2−ΔΔCt method. • Fifteen DEGs were detected to comprehensively evaluate stability of reference gene. • qRT-PCR were performed on the RNA-seq samples ensured reliability.
