MeSH Heading: Coronavirus, Feline
Tree Number(s): B04.820.578.500.540.150.075.500.375
Unique ID: D016765
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D016765
Annotation: infection: coordinate with CORONAVIRUS INFECTIONS; infection by FIPV = FELINE INFECTIOUS PERITONITIS
Scope Note: A species of CORONAVIRUS infecting cats of all ages and commonly found in catteries and zoos. Cats are often found carrying the virus but only a small proportion develop disease. Feline coronavirus and Feline infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV) are virtually the same virus in genetic and antigenetic terms, and are morphologically indistinguishable. Since they only differ in their disease potential (with FIPV causing a more serious illness), they are considered biotypes of each other.
Entry Term(s): Coronavirus, Feline Enteric; FECV; FIPV; Feline Enteric Coronavirus; Feline infectious peritonitis virus; Infectious Peritonitis Virus, Feline; Peritonitis Virus, Infectious Feline
