- Abstract
Lumpy skin disease (LSD) is an infectious, arthropod born disease caused by lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV) belongs to genera Capripox virus family poxviridae. In the recent past, Karnataka experienced several outbreaks of LSD with severe economic losses. Based on clinical signs the disease was tentatively diagnosed as LSD and confirmed by PCR and phylogenetic analysis. Out of the total 226 suspected cases of LSD with varying degree of clinical signs and nodular lesions,blood and tissue samples were collected from 26 animals. Conventional capripox generic PCR detected 17 (65.38 %) of P32 gene and F gene in skin biopsy samples. Phylogenetic analysis of P32 gene showed that the isolates from this study showed the similarity with other Indian isolates.
