Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) is classified into two species, namely, Bovine viral diarrhea virus 1 and Bovine viral diarrhea virus 2, and affects cattle worldwide, resulting in significant economic loss. The prevalence of BVDV-1 and BVDV-2 infections and its genotypes in Mongolian animals has not been studied. In this study, we surveyed BVDV infection in dairy cattle and yaks from Bornuur and Bulgan counties by RT-PCR, and the average infection rate in the sampling sites was 15.8 % and 20.0 %, respectively. In addition, molecular features of the 5'-UTR region of the BVDV genome in Mongolian cattle and yaks were identified as belonging to the subtypes BVDV-1a and BVDV-2a, respectively. Determining the prevalence, geographical distribution, and molecular diversity of BVDV-1 and BVDV-2 in various host species in Mongolia is important for further studies and process control programs.
牛病毒性腹泻病毒(BVDV)分为两个种,即牛病毒性腹泻病毒1型和牛病毒性腹泻病毒2型,在全球范围内影响牛群,造成重大经济损失。尚未对蒙古动物中BVDV - 1和BVDV - 2感染及其基因型的流行情况进行研究。在本研究中,我们通过逆转录聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR)对布尔干县和布尔根县的奶牛和牦牛进行了BVDV感染调查,采样点的平均感染率分别为15.8%和20.0%。此外,蒙古牛和牦牛BVDV基因组5'-非翻译区(5'-UTR)的分子特征分别被鉴定为属于BVDV - 1a和BVDV - 2a亚型。确定BVDV - 1和BVDV - 2在蒙古各种宿主物种中的流行情况、地理分布和分子多样性,对于进一步的研究和防控计划至关重要。
