    (Birsa Agricultural University, Ranchi, 1982) Murli Manohar Gupta; B. B. Verma
    Present studies were conducted on some aspects of pneumonia in kids with particular reference to contagious caprine pleuro-pneumonia; The salient features of the investigation were i 1. Pneumonia was found to be the largest single cause of mortality among the kids. The proportional mortality ratio (P.M.ratio) was 79 per 100 deaths and the C-SDR 775 per 1000 kids. 2. The kids’ upto 6 months of age were found to be highly susceptible to pneumonia. Out of 196 deaths, 173 (88.2%) were in this age group. 3. Black Bengal and crosses of Black Bengal x Jamnapari were equally susceptible to pneumonia and sex had no significant (P 0.05) influence on the mortality. 4. Lighter kids having birth weights less than 1.5 kg were found to be significantly (PL0.01) more susceptible, to pneumonia than those weighing between 1.5 - 2.5 kg. 5. The morbidity and mortality from pneumonia was significantly (PL0.01) lover during autumn than the other three season’s winter, summer and rainy. 6. Autumn born kids were significantly (PL0.01) less prone to the disease than those born during the other three seasons.

    Some of Aspects of caprine Mycoplasmosis
    (Birsa Agricultural University, Ranchi, 1987) Bhaumik, Anup; verma, B..B.
    During the present investigation to study the incidence of Mycoplasma species in natural cases of kids pneumonia, nasal swabs were taken for cultural examination from the clinical cases of the kids of I.C.A.R. goat unit, Ranchi, Bihar. It was found that 20.7 percent of the casas examined were positive for Mycoplasma organisms out of which mycoides subsp. mycoides was associated with most of the cases (81.8 x) whereas M. arginini was associated with the rest (18.2 %) of the cases. The pathogenicity of the isolated strain of Memycoides subsp. mycoides was tested in albino mice and kids of 3 to 6 months of age. It was found to be highly pathogenic for mice as it causad initially mycoplasmia and finally death in mice. All the kids died (cent percent mortality) between 8th and 16th day post inoculation after showing the symptoms of pneumonia.
