Peste des petits ruminants (PPR) outbreak in Tajikistan
The occurrence of outbreaks of peste des petits ruminants (PPR) in three districts of Tajikistan is described. The causal strain (PPRTajikistan) was characterized and the sequence of its N gene was compared with that of 43 other strains isolated since 1968 in Africa, the Middle East and Asia.The study demonstrated (1) the value of the Ngene as a target in comparing isolates obtained over an extended period of evolution, and (2) that clustering was related to the geographical origin of strains. © 2006 Elsevier Ltd.
