ObjectiveStudents should be able to: • describe the importance of fusion protein for virus penetration and vaccination. • realise that respiratory syncytial virus is still a primary virus of calf pneumonia • describe how distemper virus causes disease in dogs and how it is controlled.
Classification: 3 Genera: Paramyxovirus; Pneumoviruses; Morbilliviruses.
Cultivation and cytopathic effect: HA in eggs, syncytia in tissue culture.

Summary • 3 genera of paramyxoviridae occur : para-, morbilli- and pneumo- viruses • The isolates are monotypic because they have an unsegmented genome and conserved antigens on the fusion protein. • NDV is a serious notifiable disease of poultry. • BRSV is the most common cause of calf pneumonia. Vaccines limit disease but do not prevent infection and some exacerbate disease by immune complex disease. • CDV was the major pathogen of dogs but has been controlled in the UK by vaccination. • A variety of unexpected infections of man and wildlife have occurred.
