Typing of Borrelia Relapsing Fever Group Strains
Partial sequencing of the 16S-23S rDNA intergenic spacer showed two to four genotypes each for Borrelia hermsii and B. turicatae, both relapsing fever agents transmitted by argasid ticks, and for B. miyamotoi and B. lonestari, transmitted by ixodid ticks.

Lumpy Skin Disease in Cattle and Buffalo in Asian Countries: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis
The pooled prevalence of lumpy skin disease (LSD) in Asia was 25.2% (95% CI: 20–30.9%), with cattle (26.2%) more affected than buffalo (7.7%). Epidemic cases recorded the highest prevalence (41.4%), highlighting severe outbreak potential. Temporal analysis revealed the highest prevalence in 2016 (74%) and the lowest in 2015 (16.3%), with significant ...
