Popis: Study of the virological and serological status of abnormal sheep derived from a single outbreak of Border disease indicated a relationship between infection status and diverse pathological lesions. Persistent infection was associated with typical Border disease whereas an active, even exaggerated, serological response correlated with severe intracranial malformations which probably resulted from fetal infections occurring during the early stages of acquisition of immune responsiveness.
