SRLVs: a genetic continuum of lentiviral species in sheep and goats with cumulative evidence of cross species transmission.

Abstract excerpt

Lentiviruses from distinct animal species have in common their genomic organization, the induction of slowly progressive diseases over months or years, the large spectrum of induced symptoms and concerned organs, the frequent inapparent infection without any detectable clinical signs, their ability to persist into their hosts despite an often strong and mature immune response. Lentiviruses are also characterized...
