Abstrakt: Goat pox virus was isolated during an outbreak of pox infection among goats in the Sersenk district, Iraq. The isolated virus grew on the chorioallantoic membranes of developing chick embryos and in primary lamb testis cell cultures. It was identified morphologically as a pox virus and serologically as a member of the Capripoxvirus group in the family Poxviridae. The isolated virus was designated the “Sersenk” strain.
