Abstract
Both influenza C (ICV) and influenza D (IDV) viruses were recently included as bovine respiratory disease (BRD) causes, but their role in BRD has not been evaluated. Therefore, the mortality and reproductive performances of BRD calves with different isolated viruses were determined in this study. Data on 152 BRD calves with bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV), bovine respiratory syncytial virus (BRSV), bovine coronavirus (BCoV), bovine parainfluenza virus 3 (BPIV-3), ICV, or IDV from nasal swab samples using real-time rt-PCR were used. The general data and respiratory signs were recorded immediately, and thereafter, the data on dead or culling calves due to BRD and reproductive performance were collected. The percentages of the BRD calves were 71.7%, 52.6%, 40.8%, 10.5%, 68.4%, and 65.8% for BVDV, BRSV, BCoV, BPIV-3, ICV, and IDV, respectively. Mucous secretion (OR = 4.27) and age ≤ 6 months (OR =14.97) had higher risks of mortality than those with serous secretion and older age. The calves with IDV had lower risks of culling than those without IDV (OR = 0.19). This study shows that most viral infections in BRD calves are a combination of viruses with BVDV, ICV, and IDV. In addition, IDV might have a role in reducing the severity of BRD calves.
