A review of the possible mechanisms for the persistence of foot-and-mouth disease virus

Abstract: Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) was the first animal disease to be attributed to a virus, and the second virus to be discovered [1]. It is a positive-sense, singlestranded RNA picornavirus and the sole member of the genus Aphthovirus. Each infectious virus particle contains a single strand of RNA approximately 8-5 kb long. This is translated into a single polypeptide which is then cleaved into the structural and non-structural virus proteins.

“…At this stage, it also include linking, cannot eat and move. Other signs include licking of the feet or shifting weight from one leg to other, holding one hoof off the ground, lagging behind the herd, lying down and reluctance to rise (Woodbury, 1995). Vesicles may also be seen on the teats of lactating animals.…”

“…Vesicles may also be seen on the teats of lactating animals. Morbidity is high and young caves may die before the appearance of clinical signs due to virus infection of the developing heart muscle and the production of a severe myocarditis (Woodbury, 1995). However, most animal recover within 2 weeks.…”

“…Such animals, in which live viruses can be isolated from oropharyngeal fluid more than 28 days after infection, are defined as ''carriers'' [45,48,49,52]. Several studies have implicated pharyngeal tissues as a site of persistence in cattle.…”

“…From the quasispecies pool of genomes, variant populations are selected, either in the presence [16] or absence of immune pressure [17]. Genetic variants also arise during persistent infection of animals [18,19] or during propagation in cell culture [20]. In addition to the above mechanisms, genetic diversification in FMDV can be attributed to recombination events either between intratype and intertype [21][22][23][24][25].…”
