Abstract

The bovine pestiviruses (here referred to as bovine viral diarrhea viruses-BVDV) cause three types of disease: bovine viral diarrhea (BVD), mucosal disease (MD) or fetal disease (FD). In each case, the immune system of the host responds in a characteristic fashion (Nettleton and Entrican, 1995).
