Abstract

Pestiviruses were isolated from three eland (Taurotragus oryx) in Zimbabwe. The viruses were characterised by typing with monoclonal antibodies and by partial genetic sequencing. All were similar to bovine viral diarrhea viruses commonly isolated from cattle. This suggests that bovine viral diarrhea virus can spread from cattle to eland.
