A survey of guineafowl sera from Maiduguri area of Borno State for antibody to infectious bursal disease (IBD) virus was carried out between the months of January to April, 1991. Agar gel diffusion precipitation test (AGDT) was the serological method employed for the investigation. Out of the total of 196 sera tested, only 16 were found to contain precipitating antibodies to IBD. This represents 9.1% infection rate.

SUMMARYRecent evidence of bluetongue (BT) virus infection of livestock in scattered localities in the neotropics prompted a serologic survey of cattle in Colombia and Costa Rica. In Costa Rica 48·1% of 1435 bovine animals had BT virus antibody in the agar gel precipitation test (AGPT). In Colombia 51·8% of 635 cattle were AGPT-positive for BT virus. Antibody prevalence ranged from over 50% in the lowlands to 0% in Costa Rica and 19% in Colombian cattle above 2000 m altitude. Neutralization tests indicated that Costa Rican cattle had been exposed to BT virus types 6, 12, 14 and 17.
