Abstract excerpt
Mucosal disease is the most severe disease resulting from bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) infection in cattle. Two biotypes of BVDV may be isolated from animals with mucosal disease: cytopathic (cp) and noncytopathic (ncp). These "pairs" of cp/ncp viruses are often closely related and it has been suggested that the cp virus arises from a ncp virus by insertion of cellular RNA in the p125 region of the BVDV...
