Pestiviruses are not strictly host-species specific and can infect not only domestic but also wild animals. The most important pestivirus, CSFV, infects domestic pigs and wild boars, which may cause a major problem for successful CSFV eradication programmes. Mainly BVDV specific antibodies have been reported in captive and free-living animals.

Diversity Among Bovine Pestiviruses
The Veterinary Journal, 2001Bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV) isolates are characterized by an important genetic, antigenic and pathogenic diversity. The emergence of new hypervirulent BVDV strains in North America has provided clear evidence of pathogenic differences between BVDV strains.

Antigenic Differences Among Pestiviruses
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Food Animal Practice, 1995Monoclonal antibody typing of pestiviruses, supplemented with genetic sequence comparisons, has shown that at least four antigenic clusters can be identified within the genus. One cluster represents "classic" bovine viral diarrhea strains, which also have been isolated occasionally from sheep and pigs, whereas a second group corresponds to classic ...

Pestiviruses comprise a group of economically important animal pathogens, namely hog cholera, bovine viral diarrhoea and border disease viruses. The viruses are serologically closely related and share a common host spectrum, i.e. pigs and numerous domestic and wild living ruminants. Interspecies transmissions occur frequently.

The Molecular Biology of Pestiviruses
2015Pestiviruses are among the economically most important pathogens of livestock. The biology of these viruses is characterized by unique and interesting features that are both crucial for their success as pathogens and challenging from a scientific point of view.

Publisher Summary Together with flaviviruses and hepatitis C virus (HCV), an important human pathogen, the pestiviruses are classified as a genus within the family Flaviviridae. Viruses in this family are small, enveloped, positive-strand RNA viruses. Compared with HCV, the pestivirus genome encodes two additional proteins, an N-terminal autoprotease,

The genetic basis for cytopathogenicity of pestiviruses
Veterinary Microbiology, 2000Two biotypes of pestiviruses, cytopathogenic (cp) and noncp viruses, can be distinguished by their effects on tissue culture cells. Identification of cp bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) has been frequently reported since antigenically closely related noncp and cp BVDV can be isolated from cattle with fatal mucosal disease (MD) and are called a virus ...

Molecular Characterization of Pestiviruses
1996Publisher Summary This chapter provides an overview of various aspects of pestiviruses, including diseases they cause and their molecular biology. General diseases caused by the pestiviruses include bovine viral diarrhea and mucosal disease, border disease, and classical swine fever.

Molecular genetics of pestiviruses
Comparative Immunology, Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, 1992Recent developments in understanding the molecular genetics of pestiviruses are reviewed. The genomic RNA of several pestiviruses has been molecularly cloned and sequenced. The genetic organization of the viral protein coding region has been refined, and the complete complement of virus-encoded proteins has been elucidated.

Genetic heterogeneity of pestiviruses of ruminants in Switzerland
Preventive Veterinary Medicine, 2005We have genetically analyzed ruminant pestiviruses. All >150 bovine viral diarrhea (BVD) viruses isolated from cattle in Switzerland belonged to genotype 1, with subgenogroups e, h, k and b found in decreasing frequency. To date, representatives of subgenogroup k have been detected in Switzerland only.
