Evidence of respiratory syncytial virus and parainfluenza-3 virus in Mexican sheep

Abstract: This is a first report in Mexico of the presence of antibodies against respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and parainfluenza-3 virus in Mexican sheep in different productive stages. We determine the association of serological positivity with age and production system, and obtain molecular evidence of infection by both virus. RSV prevalence in adult sheep was 47% (49/105) at the tropic and 64% (63/99) at the uplands. A significant difference in RSV seropositivity between animals from the tropic and the uplands wa… Show more

“…BRSV infection in calves is widespread in America [20,21] , many European countries [1,8,[22][23][24] and Turkey according to serologic [10,11] and virologic [2] evidence. There is only one study on the investigation with virological methods of BRSV and also other some viruses causing the respiratory disease in calves.…”

“…Esse tipo de criação facilita a disseminação da doença (PETERHANS et al, 2004), por ter aprisco com baixa ventilação, alta sujidade e superlotação (LAGO et al, 2006;LACASTA et al, 2008;RAHAL et al, 2014). A alta prevalência de PI-3 e BRSV nos rebanhos ovino encontrada neste estudo pode ser resultado deste tipo de criação, onde há contato muito íntimo entre os animais (MANCHEGO et al, 1998;GONÇALVES et al, 2011;CONTRERAS-LUNA et al, 2017).…”
