Description Peste des petitis ruminants (PPR) is an economically important endemic viral disease of sheep and goats in India, where several different homologous PPR vaccine candidates have been developed. We evaluated the serological response to two vaccine strains, Arasur/87 and Sungri/96, in South Indian cross-bred and native sheep and goats reared under organized and unorganized settings. Animals seronegative (percent inhibition or PI 40), seroconversion (fourfold increase in SNT titres) and seroprotection (SNT titre of ≥8 deemed to be protective) ranged from 66.7 to 84.0 %, 56.0 to 69.2 %, and 60.0 to 76.0 %, respectively. However, no significant difference was observed between responses to the two vaccine strains. These results support the premise that the two vaccine strains are equally efficacious.
