口蹄疫病毒（Foot-and-mouth disease virus，FMDV）是一种引起偶蹄类动物高度接触性传染病，是家畜的重要经济疾病之一。大多数关于口蹄疫病毒的研究是在正在实施控制措施的国家进行的。相比之下，在撒哈拉以南非洲等地区，口蹄疫病毒流行，可能出现新的毒株，只有零星的资料提交给联合王国皮尔布赖特世界参考实验室。本文描述了在喀麦隆阿达马瓦省的牛群群体样本的基础上，口蹄疫病毒的分子流行病学。在横断面研究中分离出血清型SAT 2和A。SAT 2分离株的亲缘关系相似，
Foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) causes a highly contagious viral disease of even-toed ungulates and is one of the most important economic diseases of livestock. Most studies of FMDV are done in countries where control measures are being implemented. In contrast, in areas such as sub-Saharan Africa, where FMDV is endemic and new strains are likely to emerge, there are only sporadic submissions to the World Reference Laboratory, Pirbright, United Kingdom. This paper describes the molecular epidemiology of FMDV in the Adamawa province of Cameroon based on a population sample of cattle herds. Serotypes SAT2 and A were isolated in the cross-sectional study. SAT2 isolates were all similar, with phylogenetic distances of
