Parapoxvirus of Red Deer: Evidence for Its Inclusion as a New Member in the Genus Parapoxvirus
Virology, 1995 There are three accepted members of the parapoxvirus genus, orf virus (OV), papular stomatitis virus (PSV), and pseudocowpox virus (PCV). OV is maintained in sheep and goats and PSV and PCV in cattle. Restriction endonuclease profiles of the DNA derived from representatives of these established members of the genus were compared with profiles from a ...

Real-Time PCR Detection of Parapoxvirus DNA, [PDF]
Clinical Chemistry, 2006 Abstract Background: Detection of parapoxviruses is important in various animals as well as in humans as zoonotic infections. Reliable detection of parapoxviruses is fundamental for the exclusion of other rash-causing illnesses, for both veterinarians and medical practitioners.
