Genotyping Based on the LTR Region of Small Ruminant Lentiviruses from Naturally Infected Sheep and Goats from Mexico

open access: yesBioMed Research International, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
Small ruminant lentiviruses (SRLVs) belong to the genus Lentivirus in the Retroviridae family. There are five genotypes (A, B, C, D, and E), where genotypes A and B have a global distribution and genotypes C, D, and E are limited to Europe. The presence of SRLV has been confirmed in Mexico, with genotype B detected in the central region of the country.

Investigation of the Seroprevalence of Lentivirus ovivismae and Lentivirus capartenc (Formerly Known as Maedi‐Visna and Caprine Arthritis‐Encephalitis Virus) Infections in Sheep and Goats in the Yozgat Region

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
This study conducted in the Yozgat region determined a prevalence of 6.35% for maedi‐visna in sheep and 17.5% for caprine arthritis encephalitis in goats, providing critical data for small ruminant health and disease management in the area. ABSTRACT Background Lentivirus ovivismae and Lentivirus capartenc (formerly maedi‐visna and caprine arthritis ...

Prevalence of Pneumonia in Sheep and Goats Slaughtered at Elfora Bishoftu Export Abattoir, Ethiopia: A Pathological Investigation

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Medicine, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
Accurate clinical diagnosis of pneumonia, the leading cause of mortality in small ruminants, is difficult and usually requires postmortem examination of the lungs. An active abattoir survey was conducted between November 2017 and April 2018 to estimate the prevalence and characterize the gross and histopathological lesions of pneumonic lungs in 864 ...

Wildlife hosts for OIE‐Listed diseases: considerations regarding global wildlife trade and host–pathogen relationships

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 3, Issue 2, Page 71-81, May 2017., 2017
The expanding international wildlife trade, combined with a lack of surveillance for key animal diseases in most countries, represents a potential pathway for transboundary disease movement. We reviewed peer‐reviewed literature for reports of 73 OIE‐Listed terrestrial animal diseases in wild animals and found 528 possible wild animal hosts using our ...
