Abstract
A recently isolated Israeli retrovirus from a sheep with maedi-visna was compared with other retroviruses, using cDNA-RNA hybridization in solution. The Israeli isolate was shown to have close, if not identical, genetic homologic features with the ovine progressive pneumonia virus reported in the United States, rather than with those of the maedivisna viruses of European origin.
