title: Data on a FMD virus of type "A" isolated in Italy in 1975.
abstract: A strain of FMD virus type A was isolated in a disease outbreak in Alessandria, Italy, in December 1975. Affected animals were young unvaccinated bovines and pigs of a very restricted region. No further spread has been observed. The strain was compared with some subtype strains of type A, including the Italian vaccinal strain. This Italy 1975 strain differs from all the other viruses included in the performed tests.
