Molecular Characterisation of Orf Virus in Goats From Eastern Türkiye. [PDF]
This study provides the molecular characterisation of Orf virus (ORFV) strains circulating in Türkiye. Phylogenetic analysis of F1L, B2L, and VIR genes reveals high genetic similarity with Asian and global isolates, highlighting the importance of multi‐gene analysis in monitoring viral outbreaks and understanding disease origins.

Molecular Detection and Characterization of Orf Virus in Goats With Clinical Signs From Four Districts of Tanzania. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background: Orf virus (ORFV), a zoonotic member of the genus Parapoxvirus, causes contagious ecthyma in sheep and goats and poses significant economic and public health concerns. Despite frequent outbreaks, molecular data on ORFV circulating in Tanzania remain scarce.

Molecular Detection and Phylogenetic Analysis of Orf Virus From Dermatological Lesions in the Teats of Goats. [PDF]
Viral DNA (orf virus) was detected in tissue samples using the semi‐nested PCR method. In addition, the data obtained by performing sequence analyses of the amplicons with positive results were compared with the information of different orf virus isolates registered in the GenBank database.
