Abstract excerpt
Small ruminants lentiviruses (SRLV) nucleotide sequences spanning the V1V2 variable regions of the env gene were amplified by nested-PCR from 38 blood samples collected from 16 naturally infected sheep flocks in France. For the rapid SRLV group determination of field isolates, the PCR-amplified fragments were subjected to a SRLV-adapted heteroduplex mobility assay (HMA). All viral sequences were clearly...
