Braz J Microbiol. 2020 Mar;51(1):395-401. doi: 10.1007/s42770-019-00121-2. Epub 2019 Aug 7.

Abstract

Thirty-one bovine cutaneous warts were submitted to macroscopic and histological analyses and to molecular analyses to partial amplification and sequencing of the L1 gene of bovine papillomavirus (BPV). Viral types detected were BPV1 (52%), BPV2 (29%), BPV6 (16%) and BPV10 (3%). BPV2 had lower frequency in papilloma in comparison to that in fibropapilloma (p = 0.002).

Keywords: BPV1; BPV10; BPV2; BPV6; Papillomaviruses.
