“…We demonstrated active circulation of multiple FMDV serotypes in cattle herds across different regions in Uganda during 2014–2017, which is consistent with earlier observations in the region (Mwiine et al, ; Namatovu, Tjørnehøj, et al, ). However, compared with prior reports in Uganda (Ayebazibwe, Mwiine, Tjørnehøj, et al, ; Balinda, Belsham, et al, ; Dhikusooka et al, ; Mwiine et al, ; Namatovu, Belsham, et al, ; Namatovu, Tjørnehøj, et al, ), the results reported here provide new information regarding recent circulation of FMDV in Uganda. We documented the circulation of new genetic lineages in Uganda mostly associated with serotypes O (topotype EA‐1 and EA‐2), SAT 1 (topotype I) and SAT 2 (topotypes VII and X).…”
