Genotypes diversity of env gene of Bovine leukemia virus in Western Siberia.

ABSTRACT:

Background

This study describes the biodiversity and properties of Bovine leukemia virus in Western Siberia. This paper explores the effect of different genotypes of the env gene of the cattle leukemia virus on hematological parameters of infected animals. The researchers focused on exploring the polymorphism of the env gene and, in doing so, discovered the new genotypes I_a and I_b, which differ from genotype I. Several hypotheses on the origin of the different genotypes in Siberia are discussed.

Results

We obtained varying length of the restriction fragments for genotypes I_. Additionally using restrictase Hae III were received fragments was named genotype I_a, and genotype I_b. There are 2.57 ± 0.55% (20 out of 779) sample
