Key result
A natural interspecies recombinant bovine/porcine enterovirus (ovine enterovirus type 1) was detected in 44% (7 of 16) of faecal samples from 3-week-old domestic sheep.
Population
16 faecal samples from 3-week-old domestic sheep (Ovis aries) collected in two consecutive years

May signal interspecies recombination in livestock; leaves open zoonotic surveillance needs and enterovirus host-range evolution.
Observational (n=16)
The study identifies a natural interspecies recombinant bovine/porcine enterovirus in sheep, suggesting a closer evolutionary relationship and genetic exchange between bovine and porcine enteroviruses.
Boros et al. (2012) conducted an observational in Enterovirus (n=16). Enterovirus screening was evaluated on Detection of ovine enterovirus type 1 (OEV-1). A natural interspecies recombinant bovine/porcine enterovirus (ovine enterovirus type 1) was detected in 44% (7 of 16) of faecal samples from 3-week-old domestic sheep.
