Description
A virus family known in people and pigs also circulates in Italian cattle, Francesco Pellegrini and co-authors show in this 2024 study. They screened stool samples from 38 cattle, some with gut illness and some healthy, for kobuviruses. Virus RNA turned up in ten animals, about a quarter of the group, and six of those ten had shown enteric signs.
Most strains matched Aichivirus B, the usual cattle type. Two strains, though, matched Aichivirus D, kin to strains found in cattle, yaks, and goats elsewhere. Full genome reads showed both were mosaics, mixing one lineage's coat genes with another's inner genes. Such recombinant viruses, the authors say, are a normal part of the livestock virus mix.
