Maedi–Visna virus infection in sheep. History and present knowledge
Briefly the history of maedi-visna and the major clinical symptoms are described. Examples are presented to demonstrate that the genetic composition of a breed determines whether or not sheep become sick after an infection with maedi-visna virus (mvv) or develop solely specific antibodies.

Mucosal vaccination with an attenuated maedi–visna virus clone
Vaccine, 2005Four sheep were infected intratracheally with an attenuated molecular clone of maedi-visna virus (MVV). All four became infected. Ten months later these sheep were challenged intratracheally with a genetically similar but pathogenic clone of MVV. Four unvaccinated sheep were infected simultaneously. All sheep became infected by the challenge virus. The
