Generally, capripoxvirus infections are host specific in nature and occasionally infect more than one species. In this study, an investigation was carried out from an outbreak of capripox in a mixed flock of sheep and goats which occurred in 2013 in the State of Jammu & Kashmir. The genetic analysis of P32, RPO30 and GPCR genes revealed that both goats and sheep were infected with goatpox virus.
一般来说,山羊痘病毒感染本质上具有宿主特异性,偶尔会感染不止一个物种。在本研究中,对2013年查谟和克什米尔邦一个绵羊和山羊混养群中爆发的山羊痘疫情进行了调查。对P32、RPO30和GPCR基因的遗传分析表明,山羊和绵羊均感染了山羊痘病毒。
