ABSTRACT
The occurrence of natural in utero adenovirus infection in sheep was examined. Isolation of three adenovirus strains from the kidneys of 174 sheep foetuses is reported; all three isolates belonged to Type 2 bovine adenovirus (BAV 2) Subtype B. Five of 25 blood samples from sheep foetuses contained virus-neutralizing antibodies (1:4-1:24) against BAV 2. These data prove that transplacental transfer of adenovirus infection can occur naturally in sheep.
