Isolation of infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus from a latently infected feral pig.
Infectious bovine rhinotracheitis (IBR) virus was isolated from the trigeminal ganglion of a feral pig after dexamethasone treatment. Three pigs inoculated intranasally with the IBR virus did not respond clinically or serologically. The virus was re-isolated from tonsillar swabs from two animals on Post-Infection Day (PID) 3.
