Abstract
A pestivirus originally isolated from weaner pigs was shown to be capa ble of infecting weaners experimentally, but without inducing signific ant signs of disease. When inoculated into pregnant sows and ewes in e arly gestation, both the porcine virus and an antigenically similar ov ine border disease isolate could induce congenital infections in both species.
