本文研究了麦蛾（Oeciacus vicarius Horvath）对摩根堡病毒（Fort morgan，FM）的感染、传播和复制。燕子虫被允许以实验感染的家雀为食。在22°C下孵育18天或更长时间后，测试燕蝽是否存在病毒或允许其以新的FM敏感麻雀为食。70%至80%的臭虫在孵化后含有病毒，病毒通过叮咬传播了10次。有3次，潜伏期在233至311天之间，包括接近4 ℃的时期。在细胞培养中，臭虫的最终病毒含量为103.5空斑形成单位/昆虫。这是该家族成员首次报告生物病毒传播。
The swallow bug, Oeciacus vicarius Horvath (Hempitera: Cimicidae), was studied with regard to infection, transmission, and replication of Fort morgan (FM) virus. Swallow bugs were allowed to feed on experimentally-infected house sparrows. After 18 or more days of incubation at 22°C, swallow bugs were either tested for presence of virus or allowed to feed on new FM-susceptible sparrows. From 70 to 80% of bugs contained virus after incubation, and virus was transmitted by bite on 10 occasions. On 3 such occasions, the incubation period was between 233 and 311 days and included periods near 4°C. Ultimate virus content of bugs was ∼ 103.5 plaque forming units/insect in cell culture. This is the 1st report of biologic virus transmission by a member of this family.
