Severe clinical disease induced in cattle persistently infected with noncytopathic bovine viral diarrhea virus by superinfection with cytopathic bovine viral diarrhea virus.
Eight healthy cattle that were persistently infected with noncytopathic bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) were inoculated with cell culture fluids that contained noncytopathic or cytopathic BVDV. A severe disease occurred after inoculation with cytopathic BVDV. The clinical signs, lesions, and immune response were consistent with those of clinical BVDV infections.
