Abstract

Newborn Afghan pikas have been inoculated with bovine papilloma virus via the subcutaneous route. Cutaneous or subcutaneous fibromas and fibrosarcomas were observed after a mean incubation period of nine months. The transmission of these tumors by homograft has been obtained. Bovine papilloma virus antibodies have been demonstrated in most of the animals inoculated at birth. They have not been detected in animals bearing transplanted tumors.
