Abstract
Background: Small ruminant morbillivirus (SRMV), bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV), bovine herpes virus-1 (BHV-1), and bovine ephemeral fever virus (BEFV) are among the most important viruses of farm animals. Objectives: This study aimed at the serological detection of SRMV, BVDV, BHV-1, and BEFV in the camel population of Khuzestan Province, located in southwest Iran. Methods: A total of 150 camel blood samples were randomly collected from free-ranging, seemingly healthy camels of both sexes and various ages in 8 different regions of Khuzestan Province, Iran. The sera were tested for SRMV, BVDV, BHV-1, and BEFV with serum neutralization test. Results: The seropositive samples for SRMV, BVDV, and BHV-1 were 1(0.67%), 7(4.67%), and 11(7.33%), respectively. There was no seroconversion against BEFV in the serum samples. Conclusion: The camel population of Khuzestan Province is subclinically infected with SRMV, BVDV, and BHV-1 and could play a significant role in the epizootiology of these viral diseases in this region, which is very important for the control and eradication programs.
