Metagenomic Sequencing of Bronchoalveolar Lavage Samples from Feedlot Cattle Mortalities Associated with Bovine Respiratory Disease
نویسندگان
چکیده
Bovine respiratory disease (BRD) is a significant and costly illness in feedlot cattle. Metagenomic analysis was performed on bronchoalveolar lavage samples obtained from 18 feedlot cattle that died of BRD.

Detection of antibody against infectious bovine rhinotracheitis glycoprotein gE in aborted cattle in Mashhad, Iran
Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis is a highly contagious disease caused by the bovine herpes virus-1 (BoHV-1), resulting in significant losses to livestock around the world. BoHV-1 is a major pathogen of cattle, primarily associated with respiratory/genital tract infections and abortion. In the present study, we determined the presence of antibodies in 120 serum samples of cattle with the histo...
متن کاملBovine Rhinitis Viruses Are Common in U.S. Cattle with Bovine Respiratory Disease
Bovine rhinitis viruses (BRV) are established etiological agents of bovine respiratory disease complex however little research into their epidemiology and ecology has been published for several decades. In the U.S., only bovine rhinitis A virus 1 (BRAV1) has been identified while bovine rhinitis A virus 2 (BRAV2) and bovine rhinitis B virus (BRBV) were previously only identified in England and ...
متن کاملPrevalence, outcome, and health consequences associated with persistent infection with bovine viral diarrhea virus in feedlot cattle.
OBJECTIVE To estimate prevalence of cattle persistently infected (PI) with bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) at arrival at a feedlot, prevalence of chronically ill and dead PI cattle, and the magnitude of excess disease attributable to a PI animal. DESIGN Cross-sectional and cohort studies. ANIMALS 2,000 cattle at the time they arrived at a feedlot, 1,383 chronically ill cattle from 7 feed...
متن کاملAnimal Health: Beef cattle health, lameness and mastitis
Bovine respiratory disease complex (BRDC) is a multi-factor disease, and disease incidence may be associated with an animal’s commensal microbiota (metagenome). Therefore, evaluation of the animal’s resident microbiota in the upper nasal cavity may help us to understand the effect of the metagenome on incidence of BRDC in cattle. Nasal swabs from approximately 600 calves were collected at vario...
متن کاملViral metagenomics reveal blooms of anelloviruses in the respiratory tract of lung transplant recipients.
Few studies have examined the lung virome in health and disease. Outcomes of lung transplantation are known to be influenced by several recognized respiratory viruses, but global understanding of the virome of the transplanted lung is incomplete. To define the DNA virome within the respiratory tract following lung transplantation we carried out metagenomic analysis of allograft bronchoalveolar ...
