What Does BPV Stand For?
BPV stands for Bovine Papillomavirus
Bovine Papillomavirus (BPV) is a viral pathogen that primarily affects cattle, leading to the development of papillomas or tumors on various parts of the body, such as the skin and mucosal surfaces. BPV is classified into several types, each associated with specific clinical manifestations among bovine populations. The virus is transmitted through direct contact and has significant implications for livestock health and agricultural productivity. Understanding BPV is crucial for effective diagnosis, management, and prevention of related diseases in cattle.
