Abstract: This study was carried out to investigate viral etiology using molecular methods in cattle with respiratory system problems. The animal material of the study consisted of 200 cattle of different breeds, age and sex, which were not vaccinated against bovine parainfluenza virus 3 (BPIV-3), bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV), bovine respiratory syncytial virus (BRSV) and Bovine adenovirus-3 (BAV-3), brought to the clinics of Kafkas University Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Department of Internal Medicine, with respiratory system complaints and found to have abnormal respiratory system findings after clinical examination. Blood and swab (if animals had nasal discharge) samples were collected. PCR was performed, positive samples were sent for sequence analysis and the data were subjected to phylogenetic analysis. BVD was detected in 3 of the blood samples collected. From the swab samples; BVD was detected in 8 animals, BPIV-3 in 3 animals, and BRSV in 4 animals. BAV-3 was not detected in any of the collected samples. As a result of the phylogenetic analysis, it was determined that BVD viruses were classified as BVDV-1a, BPIV-3 viruses as genotype C and BRSV viruses as subgroup III (subgroup A). It is thought that these data will be help in guiding in the struggle against viral agents that frequently cause respiratory system diseases. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
