The importance of the PrP genotype in active surveillance for ovine scrapie.

Epidemiology and infection - 1 May 2008

Tongue S C, Wilesmith J W, Nash J, Kossaibati M, Ryan J

Abstract excerpt

Surveillance activities for ovine scrapie have expanded in the 21st century, following concerns about the potential for a hidden epidemic of bovine spongiform encephalopathy in European sheep populations. Large-scale surveys have been used to estimate the prevalence of scrapie infection. In this study we analyse data from the surveys in Great Britain between 2002 and 2004. When we estimate genotype-specific...
