Molecular detection of bovine leukemia virus: A study in Colombia cluster
The Enzootic Bovine Leukemia (EBL) is caused by a virus of the Retroviridae family, the Bovine Leukosis Virus (BLV), affecting cattle of any age, sex, race and generates significant economic losses. The few molecular studies carried out in Colombia, are focus on dairy cattle. For that reason, the pr...

| description | The Enzootic Bovine Leukemia (EBL) is caused by a virus of the Retroviridae family, the Bovine Leukosis Virus (BLV), affecting cattle of any age, sex, race and generates significant economic losses. The few molecular studies carried out in Colombia, are focus on dairy cattle. For that reason, the present work, was directed to detect VLB by molecular PCR test in cattle, for different farms and regions, in order to evaluate the relationship between the presence of VLB in animals, with the geographic location and bovine livestock.Out of a total 230 clusters animals organized by region of origin, 22.6 % of they were detected infected with VLB; ofthese, the Centre region had the highest number of infected animals (50.7 %). As for the production type, dairy cattle were the most likely to be infected by the VLB (50.7 %). Results indicate a significant relationship between the presence of virus, with the geographic location and type of production.These results, are important in order to formulate control and preventives programs by the government agencies of animal health. |

La leucosis bovina enzoótica (LBE) es ocasionada por un virus de la familia Retroviridae, el virus de la leucosis bovina (VLB), que afecta bovinos de cualquier edad, sexo y raza y genera importantes pérdidas económicas. En Colombia, los pocos estudios moleculares se concentran en ganado de leche; por ello, el presente trabajo se dirigió a detectar el VLB mediante una prueba molecular de PCR en animales destinados a diferentes tipos de explotación ganadera y de diferentes regiones del país, con el propósito de evaluar la relación entre la presencia del VLB en los animales, la ubicación geográfica y el tipo de explotación bovina. De un total de 230 animales, organizados por conglomerados según la región de origen, el 22.6 % se detectó con el VLB; de estos la región Centro presentó el mayor número de animales infectados (50.7 %). En cuanto al tipo de producción, el ganado de leche fue el más susceptible a ser infectado por el VLB (50.7 %). Los resultados indican que existe una significativa relación entre la presencia molecular del virus, la ubicación geográfica de los animales y el tipo de explotación bovina, datos importantes para la planeación de programas de prevención y control de la LBE por los organismos gubernamentales de salud animal.
