Nucleotide position in relation to the published prototype sequence of the HGA agent (U02521). Comparison was made for bp 59-584 of the prototype with the obtained 526 bp sequence from this study. Dots show identities with the prototype sequence;

nuclotide sequence from goats B10 (June), M8 (October);

nucleotide sequence from B11 (June);

nucleotide sequence from A8 (July);

identical sequence obtained from 13 cattle;

CH, Switzerland;

GER, Germany;

N, Norway.
