| identification and phylogenetic analysis of orf viruses isolated from outbreaks in goats of assam, a northeastern state of india. | two outbreaks of orf virus (orfv) (a parapoxvirus) infection in goats, which occurred in golaghat and kamrup districts of assam, a northeastern part of india, were investigated. the disease was diagnosed by standard virological and molecular techniques. the entire protein-coding region of b2l gene of two isolates were cloned and sequenced. phylogenetic analysis based on b2l amino acid sequences showed that the orfvs identified in these outbreaks were closely related to each other and both were c ... | 2012 | 22547162 |
