ABSTRACT
Conclusion: In conclusion, it is organized that research on bovine lymphosarcoma is still in its early stages. There is evidence supporting the viral causation hypothesis, but no agent has been isolated which will reproduce the disease when inoculated into calves. Additional studies of immunologie and hereditary factors also are needed, for they may play key roles in the development of the disease. The clarification of the interaction of these viral, immunologie, and genetic factors would yield information of benefit not only to the livestock industry but would provide clearer insights regarding similar disease of other animal species.
