Abstract

In 2011, several herds in Youngju city in Gyeongbuk province underwent an outbreak of bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) causing high morbidity and mortality. Genetic analysis revealed that two subgenotypes of BVDV-1b (n = 21) and BVDV-2a (n = 7) were identified. The BVDV-1b subgenotype was most frequently detected from our field cases and BVDV-2a subgenotype was also identified in this outbreak. These BVDV-1b infections showed severe acute clinical manifestations similar to BVDV-2 infection. This result reports the detection of BVDV-1b associated with an acute and fatal outbreak of BVDV in Korean indigenous calves.

2011년 경북 영주의 여러 농가에서 이병율과 치사율이 높은 소 바이러스성 설사 바이러스(BVDV)가 발생하였다. 유전자 분석 결과 두 개의 유전자형 BVDV-1b (n = 21)와 BVDV-2a (n = 7)이 확인되었다. 검사결과, 이 지역의 농가에서는 BVDV-1b 유전자형이 가장 많이 검출되었고, 또한 몇 농가에서 BVDV-2a 유전자형도 검출되었다. 이들 농가에서 발생한 BVDV-1b 감염은 BVDV-2 감염과 유사한 중증의 급성 임상증상을 보여 주었다. 이 결과는 한우 송아지에서 급성이면서 치명적인 BVDV-1b 발생을 보고한다.
