The rapid development of Next Generation Sequencing technologies leads to the
accumulation of huge amounts of sequencing data. The scientific community faces an …

A multiplex PCR (mPCR) for the differentiation of Indian FMDV serotypes, O, A, Asia 1 and C
was developed and evaluated on 142 clinical and 39 cell culture samples. On the latter …

We investigated the molecular epidemiology of foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV)
serotype Asia 1, which caused outbreaks of disease in Asia during 2003–2007. Since 2004 …

Foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) causes a highly contagious viral disease of even-

Abstract In India, Foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) serotype O has been associated
with more than 75% of the outbreaks. Previous studies with this serotype have indicated that …

A one-step, real-time reverse transcription-loop-mediated isothermal amplification assay (RT-
LAMP) for rapid detection and serotyping of Indian foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) is …

Recombination is one of the factors that contribute to genetic diversity in foot-and-mouth
disease virus (FMDV). Similarity and bootscan analyses have provided evidence of …
