The pathogenesis of ovine footrot
Veterinary Microbiology, 2011Ovine footrot is a contagious and debilitating disease that is of major economic significance to the sheep meat and wool industries. The causative bacterium is the gram negative anaerobe Dichelobacter nodosus. Research that has used a classical molecular genetics approach has led to major advances in our understanding of the role of the key virulence ...

Current approaches to the management of ovine footrot
Veterinary Journal, 2005Ovine footrot remains the most important cause of lameness in sheep flocks in the UK, despite the existence of proven methods for the control of the disease. Recent research suggests that sheep farmers may be unaware of these methods and may allocate greater resources to treatment of footrot rather than to its prevention.

Eradication of footrot of lesser clinical severity (intermediate footrot)
Australian Veterinary Journal, 2003ObjectiveTo determine if intermediate footrot (IFR) can be eradicated from a flock of sheep by inspection and culling of cases during a non‐transmission period and if prior antibiotic treatment or vaccination increases the likelihood of eradication.ProcedureA replicated field experiment that compared the three eradication strategies was followed by an ...

Footrot vaccines and vaccination
Vaccine, 2014Research on footrot in small ruminants, which is caused by Dichelobacter nodosus, has led to development of vaccines and their application for control, treatment and eradication of the disease in sheep. Footrot vaccines have evolved over decades to contain monovalent whole cell, multivalent recombinant fimbrial, and finally mono or bivalent recombinant

Breeding for resistance to footrot – the use of hoof lesion scoring to quantify footrot in sheep
Veterinary Research Communications, 2008So that genetic studies can be undertaken on footrot in sheep, it is necessary that a reliable and repeatable method to categorise the phenotype is available. This paper summarises the methods used and results obtained from 1600 hoof lesion scores of 100 mixed-age ewes independently scored twice by two trained operators. Using a 5-pont scale describing

A review of footrot in sheep: New approaches for control of virulent footrot
Livestock Science, 2013Footrot caused by the bacterium Dichelobacter nodosus is a contagious disease of small ruminants and in its virulent form, it causes severe economic loss and is a significant animal welfare issue. There are 10 different serogroups of D. nodosus (A–I and M) and immunity is serogroup-specific.

Onset and remission of ovine footrot
Australian Veterinary Journal, 1983SUMMARY Sheep exposed to uncontrolled outbreaks of footrot were observed on one farm for 3 successive years and on another for one year. Observations were made from mid‐winter to early summer. In each outbreak about 70% or more of sheep exposed to footrot acquired the disease.
