Summary

The replication cycles of a cytopathogenic and a non-cytopathogenic strain of bovine virus diarrhoea virus (BVDV) were similar in kinetics and the tendency of cell-free infectivity to exceed the titre of cell-associated, but differed in virus yield per cell. Actinomycin D enhanced the yield of the non-cytopathogenic strain and depressed that of the cytopathogenic strain.
