The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of this viral infection in sheep abortions in Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari province. To this end, 100 samples of aborted sheep foetuses were tested with RT-PCR. Nine (9%) sheep were determined to be BDV positive. It was concluded that BDV was involved in abortions in sheep population in Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari, Iran.http://tru.uni-sz.bg/bjvm/BJVM%20September%202018%20p.358-363.pdfabortionBorder disease virusIranRT-PCRsheep |
