Resumen:
The bovine leukemia virus affects cattle and causes enzootic bovine leukosis,with high economic losses in dairy cattle production systems. The current epidemiological situation of BLV in beef cattle herds is unknown. This justifies the study of prevalence of infection in beef cattle herds and the detection of potential risk factors in order to implement prevention and control measures according to BLV prevalence levels. The aim of this work was to evaluate the rate of positivity to BLV in beef cattle herds in the south-eastern region of the province of BuenosAires.
