  • Title: Transmissibility and abortogenic effect of equine viral arteritis in mares.
    Author: Cole JR, Hall RF, Gosser HS, Hendricks JB, Pursell AR, Senne DA, Pearson JE, Gipson CA.
    Journal: J Am Vet Med Assoc; 1986 Oct 01; 189(7):769-71. PubMed ID: 3021696.
    Abstract:
    A group of 14 pregnant mares was exposed via contact to 4 mares bred to stallions infected with equine viral arteritis virus. There was a demonstrable febrile response in each donor mare and in 12 of the pregnant mares. All 18 mares became seropositive after exposure. Equine viral arteritis virus was isolated from the nasopharynx of 5 pregnant mares, but not from the donor mares. Ten of the pregnant mares aborted, and virus was isolated from fetal specimens or placenta of 8.
