Issue Date: | 2008 | Publisher: | 1080-6040 | Journal: | Emerging Infectious Diseases | Abstract: | An outbreak of a lethal morbillivirus infection of long-finned pilot whales occurred in the Mediterranean Sea from the end of October 2006 through April 2007. Sequence analysis of a 426-bp conserved fragment of the morbillivirus phosphoprotein gene indicates that the virus is more closely related to dolphin morbillivirus than to pilot whale morbillivirus. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10553/47537 | ISSN: | 1080-6040 | DOI: | 10.3201/eid1405.070948 | Source: | Emerging Infectious Diseases [ISSN 1080-6040], v. 14 (5), p. 792-794 |
