The mechanical arthropod vector Stomoxys calcitrans influences the outcome of lumpy skin disease virus infection in cattle

C. G. Cook, H. Munyanduki, P. C. Fay…·P. M. Beard

This study investigates how the mechanical transmission of lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV) by the stable fly Stomoxys calcitrans affects disease progression in cattle, finding that saliva and bite trauma accelerate disease kinetics.

The immune response to lumpy skin disease virus in cattle is influenced by inoculation route

P. C. Fay, N. Wijesiriwardana, H. Munyanduki…·P. Beard

This study compares immune responses in cattle inoculated with LSDV via needle or arthropod vectors, finding differences in clinical disease development and immune markers like IgM and IFN-γ.

Quantifying and modelling the acquisition and retention of lumpy skin disease virus by haematophagus insects reveals clinically but not subclinically-affected cattle are promoters of viral transmission and key targets for control of disease outbreaks.

B. Sanz-Bernardo, I. R. Haga, N. Wijesiriwardana…·P. M. Beard

This study quantifies LSDV acquisition and retention by vector insects and models transmission, finding clinical cattle are key promoters of viral spread and highlighting the need for targeted control strategies.
