In-vitro and in-vivo study of the interference between Rift Valley fever virus (clone 13) and Sheeppox/Limpy Skin disease viruses

Scientific Reports, 2021
Viral interference is a common occurrence that has been reported in cell culture in many cases. In the present study, viral interference between two capripox viruses (sheeppox SPPV and lumpy skin disease virus LSDV in cattle) with Rift Valley fever virus

Evidence of Lumpy Skin Disease Virus Transmission from Subclinically Infected Cattle by Stomoxys calcitrans

Viruses, 2023
Lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV) is a vector-transmitted capripox virus that causes disease in cattle. Stomoxys calcitrans flies are considered to be important vectors as they are able to transmit viruses from cattle with the typical LSDV skin nodules to ...

Nanopore sequencing technology and its applications

MedComm, Volume 4, Issue 4, August 2023., 2023
Nanopore sequencing has been instrumental in managing the COVID‐19 pandemic. This review aims to increase public understanding of its role in identifying SARS‐CoV‐2 variants and tracking changes in regional epidemiology. Additionally, the review explores the use of nanopore sequencing in detecting other microbial outbreaks, as well as its applications ...

Characterization of a Nigerian Lumpy Skin Disease Virus Isolate after Experimental Infection of Cattle

Pathogens, 2021
Lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV), together with sheeppox virus and goatpox virus, belong to the genus Capripoxvirus within the family Poxviridae. Collectively, they are considered the most serious poxvirus diseases of agricultural livestock.

Development and Validation of Rapid Colorimetric Reverse Transcription Loop‐Mediated Isothermal Amplification for Detection of Rift Valley Fever Virus

Advances in Virology, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Rift Valley fever virus (RVFV) is a high‐priority zoonotic pathogen with the ability to cause massive loss during its outbreak within a very short period of time. Lack of a highly sensitive, instant reading diagnostic method for RVFV, which is more suitable for on‐site testing, is a big gap that needs to be addressed.

Development of a Safe and Highly Efficient Inactivated Vaccine Candidate against Lumpy Skin Disease Virus

Vaccines, 2020
Capripox virus (CaPV)-induced diseases (lumpy skin disease, sheeppox, goatpox) are described as the most serious pox diseases of livestock animals, and therefore are listed as notifiable diseases under guidelines of the World Organisation for Animal ...

Western blot analysis of virus-specific antibody responses for capripox and contagious pustular dermatitis viral infections in sheep [PDF]

Epidemiology and Infection, 1994
SUMMARYThis paper reports the development and evaluation of serological tests for the differentiation of antibodies in animals infected with capripox and parapox viruses. Agar-gel immunodiffusion tests using sera from sheep with naturally-acquired infections and from sheep experimentally inoculated with orf or capripox viruses showed cross reactions ...

Establishment of a Challenge Model for Sheeppox Virus Infection

Microorganisms, 2020
Sheeppox virus (SPPV) together with goatpox virus and lumpy skin disease virus form the genus Capripoxvirus of the Poxviridae family. Due to their great economic importance and major impact on livelihood of small-scale farmers, OIE guidelines classify ...

Identification of multiple independent horizontal gene transfers into poxviruses using a comparative genomics approach [PDF]

, 2008
Background Poxviruses are important pathogens of humans, livestock and wild animals. These large dsDNA viruses have a set of core orthologs whose gene order is extremely well conserved throughout poxvirus genera.

A novel strain of lumpy skin disease virus causes clinical disease in cattle in Hong Kong

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 69, Issue 4, Page e336-e343, July 2022., 2022
Abstract Lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV) is an emerging poxviral pathogen of cattle that is currently spreading throughout Asia. The disease situation is of high importance for farmers and policy makers in Asia. In October 2020, feral cattle in Hong Kong developed multi‐focal cutaneous nodules consistent with lumpy skin disease (LSD).
