The Bacterial and Viral Agents of BRDC: Immune Evasion and Vaccine Developments
Bovine respiratory disease complex (BRDC) is a multifactorial disease of cattle which presents as bacterial and viral pneumonia. The causative agents of BRDC work in synergy to suppress the host immune response and increase the colonisation of the lower ...

Investigating bovine coronavirus in Indian calves: Incidence, molecular evidence, and pathological role in bovine respiratory disease complex (BRDC). [PDF]
Bovine coronavirus (BCoV) and bacterial pathogens contribute to bovine respiratory disease complex (BRDC) in young calves. However, the role of BCoV in BRDC occurrence and site-specific respiratory pathology in India remains poorly explored.This study aimed to assess BCoV prevalence in BRDC cases.We investigated 406 weaner calves (166 cattle, 240 ...

Detection and Genomic Characterization of Novel Respiratory Viruses in US and Mexican Cattle Farms. [PDF]
Respiratory virus infections in cattle cause an estimated more than $1 billion in production losses and can threaten human health. During February 2024 to May 2025, we employed a One Health approach to surveil for respiratory viruses among cattle, farm workers, and environmental samples from 11 US and Mexican beef or dairy cattle farms.

Epidemiological Insights Into BVDV and IBRV in Feeder Cattle After Cross-Regional Transport in China 2022-2024: Coinfection Dynamics and Implications for BRDC Control. [PDF]
Background Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) and infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus (IBRV) are key components of the bovine respiratory disease complex (BRDC) in China’s cross‐regional feeder system. We quantified antibody and antigen positivity and identified epidemiological determinants across provinces, seasons, years, and clinical status ...
