Abstract

One-day-old, specific pathogen-free lambs, were equally susceptible to infection with three isolates of caprine herpesvirus 1 (CHV1). One of these isolates was genomically different by DNA analysis. Lesions, which were confined to the lung, ranged from a mild interstitial reaction to widespread consolidation. CHV1 was recovered from lungs and less commonly from liver and adrenal gland. Three-week-old SPF lambs were also successfully infected with CHV1. Histopathological findings were similar to those in 1-week-old lambs.
