Abstract/Description: | Although bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV) is pre-valent in Indian cattle causing economic losses in cattle farming, its detection in bull semen has not yet been reported. Following passage of raw bull semen (n=4) on MDBK cells, testing for BVDV was done by antigen ELISA and real-time RT-PCR. BVDV type-2 (BVDV-2) was identified in three samples from south-ern India by real-time RT-PCR. Genetic typing of the 5-UTR sequences classified all the three BVDV strains as BVDV-2a subtype. These were found ge-netically closely related to the strains from USA, but divergent from the BVDV-2a strains from northern India. Phylogenetic analysis of Npro sequences con-firmed the findings. The results provide evidence of circulation of BVDV-2a strains in southern India. The detection of BVDV in bull semen from India high-lights the importance of mandatory testing of breeding bulls and bull semen for BVDV to minimize the risk of BVDV transmission. |
