Characterisation of bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV) isolates from an outbreak with haemorrhagic enteritis and severe pneumonia

Vet Microbiol. 2014 Feb 21;169(1-2):42-9. doi: 10.1016/j.vetmic.2013.12.005. Epub 2013 Dec 18.

Abstract

During 2007 a disease outbreak occurred in cattle in the Marmara region of western Turkey characterised by severe pneumonia and haemorrhagic enteritis in calves. Cases from three farms at different locations were examined and bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV) isolated in all cases. Phylogenetic characterisation of the virus isolates allocated them in a new cluster tentatively named as BVDV-1r.

Keywords: Bovine viral diarrhoea virus; Cattle; Haemorrhagic enteritis; New subtype; Phylogenetic analysis.
