According to the results of the Nested-PCR method in this study, 16.2% of 197 slaughtered Holstein
cattle in Meysam abattoir of Tehran were infective with BIV. Sequencing of the amplicons obtained
from PBLs of the cattle using gag-specific primers revealed that there was 98.7-98.9% homology
between this field strain and reference sequences of BIV. The infection rate of cattle with enlarged
heamal nodes was higher than the animals without these lesions (0.01
