Abstract:
... The livestock sector is a key driver of humanity's transgression of several planetary boundaries, with the production of ruminant meat being particularly impactful. Given current trends in demand for animal products, strategies to significantly reduce the livestock sector's environmental impacts are urgently needed. Here we draw on published data to examine livestock's impacts in three key critica ...

Abstract:
... Outbreaks of peste-des-petits ruminants (PPR) has been reported regularly in Nepal since 1994. Despite this, there has been limited molecular characterization of circulating virus in the country. In this study a 351 bp segment of the nucleoprotein gene of the PPR virus (PPRV) was amplified and sequenced from ten samples collected between 2005 and 2016. Phylogenetic trees were estimated from these ...

Abstract:
... Small ruminant morbillivirus (SRMV), formerly called peste-des-petits-ruminants virus (PPRV), is classified into the genus Morbillivirus in the family Paramyxoviridae. If genetically modified using reverse genetics, the SRMV would be a useful vector to express foreign proteins in vitro and in vivo. In this study, a recombinant SRMV was rescued by reverse genetics for efficiently expressing an enha ...

Various data have been published concerning BM and its components bite diameter, bite area, bite depth and bite volume (BDiam, BA, BD and BV). However, it was not yet possible to have a clear quantitative view of the relationships between BM and its related components. The sward factors ...

This has been led to the widespread emergence of resistance in a number of small ruminant parasite species, especially Haemonchus contortus. In many countries benzimidazole resistance has severely compromised the control of H. contortus in small ruminants; but there is a little i ...
