Picobirnaviruses: prevalence, genetic diversity, detection methods by A. Yu. Kashnikov, N. V. Epifanova, N. A. Novikova

“…Such factors as stress syndrome, physiological conditions, immune status and host age at the time of primary PBV infection influence the virus detection rate in humans and animals. The possible zoonotic nature of human PBV infection is noted due to the capacity for interspecies PBV transmission acquired during evolution as a result of the reassortment of the genome segments of different viruses infecting the same host. …”

London’s Great Starfish: The Construction of Mid-Victorian Suburban Fiction by Tamara Silvia Wagner

“…It is an outgrowth only to be understood as an otherworldly creature: from some undefined depths of alterity, an exotic animal rises to finger the English countryside. The centrality of changing urban space in Victorian literature and culture has spawned some of the best interdisciplinary research, but precisely this concentration on the city has elided suburbia's significance. …”
