PrP genotype: a flock-level risk factor for scrapie?

Preventive veterinary medicine - 1 Dec 2009

Tongue Sue C, Pfeiffer Dirk U, Shearn P Dave, Wilesmith John W

Abstract excerpt

Previous epidemiological studies of risk factors for classical scrapie at flock level have identified a variety of management and purchase related variables, along with increased flock size and, in some cases, breed effects. Although known as a risk factor at the individual animal level, PrP genotype frequencies at flock level have not yet been studied. In an unmatched case-control study, three measures of...
