  • Biotechnology, viral oncogenesis and jaagsiekte 
    Verwoerd, Daniel Wynand; Bigalke, R.D. (Published by The Government Printer, Pretoria, 1985)

  • Demonstration of growth-inhibitory as well as growth-stimulatory factors in medium conditioned by lung lavage cells stimulated with a chemotactic factor secreted by jaagsiekte tumour cells 
    Verwoerd, Daniel Wynand; Myer, M.S.; Garnett, H.M.; Bigalke, R.D. (Published by the Government Printer, Pretoria., 1987)
    Both growth-inhibitory and growth-stimulatory factors were detected in vitro in medium from chemotactically stimulated cultures of lung lavage cells. The macrophage component of the lavage cells was found to produce a ...
  • The effect of a natural maedi-visna virus infection on the productivity of South African sheep 
    Bath, Gareth F.; Verwoerd, Daniel Wynand; Dungu, B.; Vorster, J.; Verwoerd, Daniel Wynand (Published by the Agricultural Research Council, Onderstepoort Veterinary Institute ., 2000)
    A cohort study was conducted in order to measure the effect of the chronic indurative lymphocytic mastitis caused by the South African strain of maedi visna virus (MVV) on the pre-weaning growth of lambs born ...
  • Experimental infection of vaccinated slaughter ostriches with virulent Newcastle disease virus 
    Verwoerd, Daniel Wynand; Gerdes, Gertruida Hermanna; Olivier, A.; Williams, R.; Verwoerd, Daniel Wynand (Published by the Agricultural Research Council, Onderstepoort Veterinary Institute, 1997)
    A virulent Newcastle disease virus (NDV) isolate from an outbreak in commercial poultry, with virulence indices of MDT = 47-48 h; IVPI = 2,17 and ICPI = 1,8; was used to inoculate 10x vaccinated (standard poultry vaccines) ...
  • Experimental transmission of jaagsiekte (ovine pulmonary adenomatosis) to goats 
    Verwoerd, Daniel Wynand; Tustin, R.C.; York, D.F; Williamson, Anna-Lise; Bigalke, R.D. (Published by the Government Printer, Pretoria., 1988)
    Jaagsiekte was successfully transmitted to at least 2 out of 6 goats inoculated intratracheally with partially purified jaagsiekte retrovirus. Multiple, small, well circumscribed nodules found in the lungs consisted of ...
  • Failure to demonstrate in vitro as opposed to in vivo transcription of the bluetongue virus genome 
    Verwoerd, Daniel Wynand; South Africa. Dept. of Agricultural Technical Services; Tustin, R.C.; De Lange, M.; Reinecke, R.K.; Walker, Jane B.; De Kock, V.E. (Pretoria : Government Printer, 1970)

    Verwoerd, Daniel Wynand; Payne, Anna-Lise; York, D.F.; De Villiers, E.M.; Querat, G.; Barban, V.; Sauze, N.; Vigne, R.; Bigalke, R.D. (Published by the Government Printer, Pretoria., 1986)
    In the course of attempts to grow the jaagsiekte retrovirus in cell culture, a typical lentivirus was isolated for the first time in South Africa from adenomatous lungs. Morphologically the virus could not be distinguished ...
