Detection of Peste des petits ruminants virus and goatpox virus from an outbreak in goats with high mortality in Meghalaya state, India [PDF]
Aim: We describe a laboratory investigation carried out to confirm the etiology of the heavy mortality (37 animals died out of total 44, i.e. 84%) in goats in Ri-Bhoi district of Meghalaya, Northeast region of India in December 2015.

Background Sheeppox and goatpox are both economically important animal diseases in which pathogens are goatpox virus (GTPV) and sheeppox virus (SPPV). They can’t cause cross-species infection between sheep and goats in general. But in recent decades, the

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

Investigation of mixed infection of Goatpox and orf in Karnataka, India [PDF]
Sheep and goat pox (SGP) and orf are economically important transboundary animal diseases of small ruminants in India. The current study investigated an outbreak of mixed infection with Goatpox virus (GTPV) and Orf virus (ORFV) that occurred in an extensive system of goat rearing.

Coinfection kinetics of goatpox virus and peste-des-petits-ruminants virus in Vero cells
Goatpox, sheeppox, and peste-des-petits-ruminants (PPR) are economically important virus diseases affecting goats and sheep, which often cause coinfection/comorbidities in the field. Coinfection with these viruses leads to enhanced infection in natural scenarios in terms of morbidities and mortalities. Currently, individual live attenuated vaccines are

Capripoxvirus Infections in Ruminants: A Review
Lumpy skin disease, sheeppox, and goatpox are notifiable diseases of cattle, sheep, and goats, respectively, caused by viruses of the Capripoxvirus genus. They are responsible for both direct and indirect financial losses.

Lumpy skin disease: a significant threat to Australia [PDF]
Lumpy skin disease (LSD) is a severe, vector-borne disease that affects cattle and Asian water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis).1 All breeds of cattle are susceptible, but both beef and high milk producing Bos taurus animals are more susceptible than Bos ...
