Comparison of whole genome sequencing approaches for Capripox viruses [PDF]
Background Direct whole genome sequencing of Capripox virus genomes from diagnostic samples is not always straightforward. Low viral content in a sample, biased sequencing and subsequent assembly and mapping methods may all influence the outcome. Methods

Development of a Real-Time qPCR Method for the Clinical Sample Detection of Capripox Virus [PDF]
Capripox viruses (CaPVs), including sheep pox virus (SPV), goat pox virus (GPV), and lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV), are the cause of sheep pox (SPP), goat pox (GTP), and lumpy skin disease (LSD) in cattle.

Thermal Inactivation of Different Capripox Virus Isolates
Capripox viruses (CaPVs) cause a highly contagious poxvirus disease of livestock animals. Working with CaPVs requires laboratories with a high biosecurity level (BSL 3), and reliable inactivation of these viruses is therefore necessary for working in ...

Development and Validation of a New DIVA Real-Time PCR Allowing to Differentiate Wild-Type Lumpy Skin Disease Virus Strains, Including the Asian Recombinant Strains, from Neethling-Based Vaccine Strains [PDF]
The current epidemic in Asia, driven by LSDV recombinants, poses difficulties to existing DIVA PCR tests, as these do not differentiate between homologous vaccine strains and the recombinant strains.

Harnessing Attenuation-Related Mutations of Viral Genomes: Development of a Serological Assay to Differentiate between Capripoxvirus-Infected and -Vaccinated Animals [PDF]
Sheeppox, goatpox, and lumpy skin disease caused by the sheeppox virus (SPPV), goatpox virus (GTPV), and lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV), respectively, are diseases that affect millions of ruminants and many low-income households in endemic countries ...

Genetic Characterisation and Risk Factors Associated With Capripoxvirus Outbreaks Among Small Ruminants in Uganda, 2021-2022. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Sheeppox and goatpox are systemic, contagious viral diseases of small ruminants caused by sheep and goat pox viruses of the genus capripoxvirus. These diseases cause fever, generalised skin lesions and negatively affect health, economics and welfare.

Evaluation and optimization of loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) technique in capripoxvirus diagnosis and its comparison with PCR method [PDF]
Sheep pox (SP), goat pox (GP), and lumpy skin disease (LSD), subspecies of the Capripox virus (CaPVs), are important in the pathogenesis of sheep, goats, and cattle.

ELISA Methods Based on Monoclonal Antibodies for the Serological Diagnosis of Lumpy Skin Disease. [PDF]
Lumpy skin disease (LSD) is a notifiable, transboundary cattle disease that spreads rapidly and has a relevant economic impact. The etiological agent is the LSD virus (LSDV), genus Capripoxvirus, and family Poxviridae. To date, LSDV is widely present in Africa, Asia, and in transcontinental regions like Russia, Turkey, and the Middle East, thus ...
