  1. PCR detection of the sheep-associated agent of malignant catarrhal fever
    S I Baxter
    Moredun Research Institute, Edinburgh
    Arch Virol 132:145-59
    ..This was estimated to correspond to one diploid bovine cell. The PCR was successfully applied to detect OHV-2 DNA in peripheral blood leucocytes (pbl) from clinical cases of SA-MCF and normal sheep...
  2. Detection of a novel bovine lymphotropic herpesvirus
    J Rovnak
    Department of Microbiology and Immunology, New York State College of Veterinary Medicine, Cornell University, Ithaca 14853, USA
    J Virol 72:4237-42
    ..Of the seropositive group, 17 animals exhibited persistent lymphocytosis, and 100% of these were herpesvirus positive by PCR. A role for bovine lymphotropic herpesvirus as a cofactor in BLV pathogenesis is considered...
  3. Detection and multigenic characterization of a novel gammaherpesvirus in goats
    B Chmielewicz
    Robert Koch Institut, Nordufer 20, 13353, Berlin, Germany
    Virus Res 75:87-94
    ..Phylogenetic analyses confirmed these relationships. The putative novel goat herpesvirus from which these sequences originate was tentatively designated caprine herpesvirus 2. This virus is the first gammaherpesvirus recognized in goats...

    Jane Rosbottom
    Laboratory for Clinical and Molecular Virology, The University of Edinburgh, Summerhall, Edinburgh, UK
    J Gen Virol 83:2999-3002
    ..Bovine T cell lines were predominantly latently infected but rabbit T cell lines supported OvHV-2 productive cycle gene expression and virus capsids were demonstrated for the first time...
