The papillomaviruses constitute a genus of infectious,
transmissible, oncogenic DNA viruses that typically
produce benign, verrucous cutaneous and
mucosal tumors (warts) in various species. Papillomaviruses
are species-specific (with the exception
of the bovine papillomavirus) and include the lizard,
finch, parrot, rabbit (Shope), hamster, mouse, caprine,
ovine, bovine, equine, impala, porcine, canine, and
human cutaneous papillomaviruses plus the rabbit
and canine oral papillomaviruses (Pulley and Stannard,
1990; Cheville, 1994; Cossart et al., 1995). Recently,
cutaneous papillomaviral papillomatosis was
confirmed in two West Indian manatees (Trichechus
manatus latirostris) using transmission electron microscopy
(Ewing et al., 1997), and by studies underway
in our laboratory with in situ DNA hybridization.
