Popis: The lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV) vaccine, Herbivac LS, batch 008, was sequenced and found to differ from the Neethling vaccine strain in the locus encoding a superoxide dismutase (SOD) homolog. The presence of a SOD homolog, be it full-length (as in Herbivac LS) or truncated (as in Neethling) may affect vaccine immunogenicity.
