Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Small and large ruminants are the main domestic livestock species for meat, milk, agrifood, and fiber production for world-wide consumption and trade. However, these livestock sectors were subjected to various disease and health risks inflected by viral, bacterial, fungal, and parasitic pathogens during animal breeding, management, and marketing, which may impede production, processing, supply, and product safety. Therefore, advancements in investigation, development, and implantation of disease outbreak monitoring, control, and prevention are critical for ruminant animal welfare, health, and product safety. This Special Issue will focus on and update on disease monitoring, control, and prevention systems and new technologies developed effectively in ruminant species, including cattle, sheep, goats, camels, camelids, and farmed deer. These articles are required to be specific to the topic of a specific disease, pathogen, or parasitism, including but not limited to Johne’s disease, brucellosis, laminitis, and helminthiasis that effect animal health or impede production, and/or specific livestock species. New biotechnology, herd health surveillance, rapid or real-time diagnostic methodology, and systematic evaluation studies will be considered for publication. There was no limit to the scope or size of the original research, investigation, and studies, which can be of significance on a state, region, country, or world scale. Specific topical, comprehensive review articles with new merit can also be considered for publication. All manuscripts are thoroughly reviewed through a single-blind peer-review process.
