Variation in Virulence for Mice and Rhesus Monkeys Among St. Louis Encephalitis Virus Strains of Different Origin
TL;DR: The virulence characteristics of 67 strains of St. Louis encephalitis (SLE) virus isolated from various sources in North, Middle, and South America were compared in mice and rhesus monkeys to provide a framework for future studies on the antigenic, genetic, and biochemical bases for SLE virus strain variation.

TL;DR: Serological surveys conducted in the 1960s indicate a high prevalence of infection of humans and domestic animals with St. Louis encephalitis (SLE), and 2 SLE virus strains have been isolated from rodents, but human disease has rarely been associated with SLE infection.

Arbovirus investigations in Argentina, 1977-1980. IV. Serologic surveys and sentinel equine program.
TL;DR: Serologic surveys of wild and domestic birds, wild mammals, and horses were conducted during arbovirus field studies in Argentina from 1977 through 1980, a non-epizootic interval, indicated that these viruses are either enzootic in, or annually reintroduced into, Argentina.

Geographic variation among St. Louis encephalitis virus strains in the viremic responses of avian hosts.
TL;DR: A high degree of concordance was demonstrated between experimental viremia in sparrows, viresmia in 3-week-old chicks, and neurovirulence for weanling mice.

TL;DR: A second virus with distinct biological, serological, and physiochemical properties was detected as a minority viral subpopulation in specimens of Cliff Swallow nest bugs and nestling bird sera containing Fort Morgan virus, previously isolated from birds and mosquitoes only in French Guiana.
