Abstract
We identified a variant of the first bovine polyomavirus (BPyV1; family Polyomaviridae) in a lymph node of a Salers cow. As the 2 previously published genome sequences of this virus originated from fetal bovine serum and ground beef, respectively, this is the first BPyV1 genome that could be traced back to an individual.

We identified a variant of the first bovine polyomavirus (BPyV1; family Polyomaviridae) in a lymph node of a Salers cow
The first bovine polyomavirus was originally isolated from kidney cell cultures originating from stump-tailed macaque (Macaca arctoides)
It was regarded as a monkey virus and named stump-tailed macaque virus (STMV) [1]
Summary
We identified a variant of the first bovine polyomavirus (BPyV1; family Polyomaviridae) in a lymph node of a Salers cow. The first bovine polyomavirus (family Polyomaviridae) was originally isolated from kidney cell cultures originating from stump-tailed macaque (Macaca arctoides). It was regarded as a monkey virus and named stump-tailed macaque virus (STMV) [1]. Independent isolations of polyomaviruses similar to STMV from different monkey kidney cell cultures were reported [2,3,4].
