Peste Des Petits Ruminant Virus

2020
The peste des petits ruminant (PPR) virus is a small ruminant morbillivirus (SRMV), formerly known as PPR virus, belonging to the family Paramyxoviridae, and the genotype of the virus is clustered into four lineages, based on the nucleoprotein (N) and fusion (F) gene-based sequence and phylogenetic analysis.

The Ultrastructure of Peste des Petits Ruminants Virus

Zentralblatt für Veterinärmedizin Reihe B, 1985
SummaryThe ultrastructure of the virus of peste des petits ruminants was studied by electron microscopy. Results showed that the virus particles are pleomorphic, the diameter of intact particles varying between 130 and 390 nm. The herring bone‐like ribonucleoprotein strands varied between 14 and 23 nm in thickness.

Recent epidemiology of peste des petits ruminants virus (PPRV)

Veterinary Microbiology, 2002
Peste des petits ruminants (PPR) is an economically important viral disease of goats and sheep first described in west Africa in the 1940s. The virus has been circulating in parts of sub-Saharan Africa for several decades and in the Middle East and southern Asia since 1993, although the first description of the virus in India dates to 1987.

Isolation of peste des petits ruminants virus from the Sudan

Research in Veterinary Science, 1984
Based on clinical signs, the presence of a rinderpest related antigen and the ability of rinderpest immune serum to prevent virus isolation, rinderpest was diagnosed in two outbreaks in goats in central Sudan during 1971 and 1972. Two viruses isolated from these goats have been re-examined both serologically and by the inoculation of experimental ...

Molecular Epidemiology of Peste des Petits Ruminants Virus

2014
Peste des petits ruminants virus (PPRV) causes an economically important plague of small ruminants. The virus is endemic across much of the developing world and has even spread into the developed world through the spread of the infection into sheep and goat populations within European Turkey.

Host Susceptibility to Peste des Petits Ruminants Virus

2014
Peste des petits ruminants virus infects a wide range of domestic and wild small ruminants and the host spectrum has recently increased to camels. Despite this host range, the clinical manifestation varies not only between domestic and wild small ruminants but also between different species.

The isolation of peste des petits ruminants virus from Northern India

Veterinary Microbiology, 1996
The aetiological agent responsible for an epizootic of a rinderpest-like disease afflicting sheep and goats in three states of northern India was confirmed as peste des petits ruminants virus. To differentiate the virus from rinderpest a number of diagnostic tests were used, including immunocapture ELISA, specific oligonucleotide primers in a reverse ...

Genome Organization of Peste des Petits Ruminants Virus

2012
Peste des Petits Ruminants (PPR) virions are enveloped, pleomorphic particles containing a genome of single stranded RNA that is enclosed in a ribonucleoprotein core. The PPRV genome is 15,948 nucleotides (nts) long, which is the longest of all the morbillivirus members except for a recently described feline morbillivirus, which is revealed to be 16 ...

Potential role of peste des petits ruminants virus in small ruminant abortions

The Veterinary Journal
The aim of the present study was to investigate the frequency, genetic variability, and phylogeny of the peste des petits ruminants virus (PPRV) in ovine and caprine fetuses. During 2014 and 2017, a total of 1054 embryos/fetuses were collected in Turkey. A real-time RT-PCR assay was used for the detection of the PPRV RNA.
