Description
Nan Li, Jinxin Meng, Yuwen He, Wenhua Wang, and Jinglin Wang study biting midges that may carry bluetongue virus in Yunnan, China, in work from 2024 in the journal record. These tiny flies spread viruses that cause severe disease in farm animals. Knowing which species feed on which animals is key to judging risk.
Midges were caught near cattle, pig, and goat pens in one county in June 2020. The team named the species, traced their blood meals, and tested them for two viruses. Two species were the focus as likely carriers. The work maps a local risk that animal health teams can act on.
