ABSTRACT
Risvanli A, Pestil Z, Azkur AK, Alparslan S, Tonbak S, Bulut H., Seroprevalence of Schmallenberg virus in repeat breeder cows, Onl J Vet Res., 17(8):432-435, 2013. Seroprevalence of
Schmallenberg virus (SBV) in repeat breeder cows is
described. Blood from 108 repeat breeders and 200 control 3 year old pregnant
Holstein cows were collected from various farms in Eastern Turkey. SBV
antibodies were detected by ELISA tests.
Forty three percent of repeat breeders were seropositive depending on
breed distribution. Greatest sera-positivity was detected in Simmentals
(78.95%) and minimum in Native Blacks (Domestic breed) (26.09%). There was no significant statistical
difference between repeat breeder cows and controls.
Key words: repeat breeder, Schmallenberg
virus, cow.
