Two ovine adenovirus (OAV) strains (RTS-42 and RTS-151), isolated from lambs in the central USA were compared, using 2-way cross-neutralization tests with the 6 recognized OAV strains, 9 bovine adenovirus strains, and 4 porcine strains. Virus RTS-42 was identified as OAV type 5, confirming previous results. Virus RTS-151 was identified as OAV type 6, although the serological crossing was largely one-sided.
