Abstract
In cytopathic bovine viral diarrhea virus genotype 1 (BVDV1) isolates, inse rtions are reported at position A (amino acid [aa] 1535) and position B (aa 1589). Insertions at position B predominate. In this survey it was found t hat in BVDV2, insertions at position A predominate. Possible reasons for th is difference in relative frequency are discussed.
