    Abstract:
    Serological survey of bovine immunodeficiency-like virus (BIV) infection was performed in cattle of 3 different farms in Hokkaido, where a relatively high seroprevalence was recorded for bovine leukemia virus (BLV). About a half of 120 cattle tested were seropositive for BLV, while 7.5% of the cattle were seropositive for BIV. Though increased numbers of leukocytes were frequently observed in BLV-seropositive cows, no such changes were observed in BIV-positive but BLV-negative cows. No correlation was demonstrated between BIV- and BLV-seroprevalence of the cattle.
