Electron microscopic studies on lumpy skin disease virus type "Neethling".
This technique has also been used extensively in studies on the structure of pox viruses. Horne & Wildy (1963) have reviewed the results obtained by various investigators working with this group of viruses. The more recently published findings of Buttner, Giese, Muller & Peters (1964) and Peters, Muller & Buttner (1964) suggest that the viruses of the pox group can be divided into the following...
متن کاملMathematical modelling and evaluation of the different routes of transmission of lumpy skin disease virus
Lumpy skin disease (LSD) is a severe viral disease of cattle. Circumstantial evidence suggests that the virus is transmitted mechanically by blood-feeding arthropods. We compared the importance of transmission via direct and indirect contact in field conditions by using mathematical tools. We analyzed a dataset collected during the LSD outbreak in 2006 in a large dairy herd, which included ten ...
متن کاملImproved method for the generation and selection of homogeneous lumpy skin disease virus (SA-Neethling) recombinants.
Lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV) is being developed as a vector for recombinant vaccines against diseases of veterinary importance. A strategy for generating viral thymidine kinase (TK) gene-disrupted recombinants which are stable and homogeneous using the South African Neethling vaccine strain of LSDV as vector has been developed. To assist with the selection process, the Escherichia coli beta-...
متن کاملExperimental infection of game animals with lumpy skin disease virus (prototype strain Neethling).

Calves of a g iraffe, an impala, two buffaloes, and two adult black wildebeests were artificially infected with the Necthling type of lumpy skin disease virus. The g iraffe and impala died with typical sympto...
متن کاملSeminal transmission of lumpy skin disease virus in heifers.
It is known that lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV) can be shed in bull semen following infection and also that artificial insemination (AI) poses a biosecurity risk. However, it is not known whether the use of LSDV infected semen in AI poses a biosecurity risk. The aim of this study was to investigate whether LSDV, transmitted through semen, can infect cows and their embryos. Two controlled trial...
