Potential of Using Capripoxvirus Vectored Vaccines Against Arboviruses in Sheep, Goats, and Cattle

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2019
The genus capripoxvirus consists of sheeppox virus, goatpox virus, and lumpy skin disease virus, which affect sheep, goats, and cattle, respectively. Together capripoxviruses cause significant economic losses to the sheep, goat, and cattle industry where

Potential link of single nucleotide polymorphisms to virulence of vaccine‐associated field strains of lumpy skin disease virus in South Africa

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 67, Issue 6, Page 2946-2960, November 2020., 2020
Abstract South Africa is endemic for lumpy skin disease and is therefore reliant on various live attenuated vaccines for the control and prevention of the disease. In recent years, widespread outbreaks of vaccine‐like strains of lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV) were reported internationally, leading to an increase in the generation of full genome ...

Experimental infection of indigenous North African goats with goatpox virus

Acta Veterinaria Scandinavica, 2021
Background Goatpox is a viral disease caused by infection with goatpox virus (GTPV) of the genus Capripoxvirus, Poxviridae family. Capripoxviruses cause serious disease to livestock and contribute to huge economic losses. Goatpox and sheeppox are endemic

First Molecular Characterisation of the Lumpy Skin Disease Virus From the North African Region, Algeria and Tunisia

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 1, January 2026.
Highlights • Molecular characterisation of the LSDV in Algeria and Tunisia. PCR detection of the presence of the LSDV in 77.9% of the samples collected. • Cattle skin and nasal and buccal swabs were the most virulent material. • Phylogenetic analysis using the p32 gene revealed 100% sequence identity and grouping with GenBank‐published LSDV sequences ...

Research Review on Inhibitors of Lumpy Skin Disease Virus: From Biological Characteristics, Drug Repurposing, to Computer‐Aided Drug Design

International Journal of Microbiology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This review summarizes the research progress on inhibitors of lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV), focusing on its biological characteristics and key proteins involved in the viral replication cycle. It compiles various inhibitors (direct‐acting poxvirus inhibitors and host‐directed poxvirus inhibitors) against poxviruses, their mechanisms of action, and ...

A sheeppox outbreak in Morocco: isolation and identification of virus responsible for the new clinical form of disease [PDF]

BMC Veterinary Research, 2014
Abstract Background Sheeppoxvirus (SPPV) is a member of the Capripoxvirus genus of the Poxviridae family, which causes significant economic losses in Morocco. The resurgence of the sheeppox disease during 2010 was characterized by an emergence of a classical nodular form for the first time in Morocco.

Characterization of a Nigerian Lumpy Skin Disease Virus Isolate after Experimental Infection of Cattle

Pathogens, 2021
Lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV), together with sheeppox virus and goatpox virus, belong to the genus Capripoxvirus within the family Poxviridae. Collectively, they are considered the most serious poxvirus diseases of agricultural livestock.

Evidence of sheeppox in seventeenth- to nineteenth-century France: a multi-disciplinary investigation of a sheep mass mortality assemblage [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science
Epizootic outbreaks posed major threats to food security, economic stability and animal welfare in past communities. While these events and their impacts are well documented in historical records, very few archaeological examples are known, and none for ...

Implementation of a Deep Learning System for Detection and Classification of Lumpy Skin Disease in Cattle: Enhancing Precision and Efficiency in Veterinary Diagnostics

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 6, November 2025.
GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT A deep learning system for the classification of lumpy skin disease in cattle is reported. Here, a novel ensemble model to leverage the strengths of ViT and ConvMixer models demonstrates the importance of model diversity in achieving high diagnostic performance.
