Abstract

An uncharacteristic outbreak of lumpy skin disease was reported in the Republic of Udmurtiya, Russia, during the climatic winter of March 2019. The causative lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV_Udmurtiya_Russia_2019) was shown to be a recombinant composed of a live attenuated Neethling-type vaccine strain as the dominant parental strain and a Kenyan KSGP/NI-2490-like virus as its minor parental strain, with 24 statistically significant recombination events that are not identical to those in LSDV Saratov/2017, in which 27 events were identified.
