The ultrastructure of cell cultures infected with border disease and bovine virus diarrhoea viruses.
The morphology of border disease virus and bovine virus diarrhoea virus in infected bovine embryonic testis cells was examined by electron microscopy. Particles which appeared to be mature virions of both viruses were similar, being roughly circular and approximately 46 nm in diameter with a 20 to 25 nm core. Virus replication took place totally within the cytoplasm in association with structures formed from modified endoplasmic reticulum.
