Contagious ovine Pleuropneumonia
Contagious bovine pleuropneumonia (CBPP) is an infectious disease affecting Bovidae and caused by a mycoplasma: M. mycoides subsp. mycoides. Advances in mycoplasma and molecular biology have opened promising new fields for the development of more effective CBPP vaccines that could be based on various options such as targeted attenuation of live strains,

Weaving knowledges to support wildlife health surveillance in Kenya's pastoral rangelands
Abstract In wildlife–livestock–human interfaces, pathogens capable of spreading between wild and domestic animals and humans have important implications for conservation outcomes, economics, and public health. Robust wildlife health surveillance can help address these risks.

Proteins sequence analysis of contagious caprine pleuropneumonia [PDF]
A total of twenty (20) contagious bovine pleuropneumonia (CCPP) proteins were retrieved from the GenBank (www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov). The proteins sequences were used to investigate the molecular identity of various CCPP proteins.

Preferences for Bundled Index‐Based Livestock Insurance: Evidence From Northern Kenya
ABSTRACT Considerable attention has been placed on bundled index insurance to enhance climate resilience, address multiple risks simultaneously, and increase the adoption of agricultural technologies. We conducted an endow‐and‐exchange choice experiment with 1,828 female and male livestock keepers in northern Kenya to elicit their preferences for ...
