The method by which the causative virus, Deer atadenovirus A, is maintained in the environment and transmitted to neonates is unknown. In this study, we investigated the potential transmission of the virus from dam to offspring in Rocky Mountain mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus hemionus) and elk in western Wyoming, US. We sampled dams before parturition during placement of vaginal implant transmitters and at parturition and sampled neonates during capture in their first days of life. We also tested for the virus in mortalities submitted for pathologic examination and laboratory analysis. We detected viral DNA in samples from all time points tested but did not find a connection between positive dams and offspring mortalities associated with adenovirus hemorrhagic disease. Although we did not find direct evidence of transmission events between dams and offspring, asymptomatic animals shedding of Deer atadenovirus A, are a likely source of infection in neonates.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.7589\/jwd-d-20-00034","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,3,25]],"date-time":"2021-03-25T12:01:36Z","timestamp":1616673696000},"page":"313-320","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["DETECTION OF DEER ATADENOVIRUS A DNA IN DAM AND OFFSPRING PAIRS OF ROCKY MOUNTAIN MULE DEER (ODOCOILEUS HEMIONUS HEMIONUS) AND ROCKY MOUNTAIN ELK (CERVUS CANADENSIS NELSONI)"],"prefix":"10.7589","volume":"57","author":[{"given":"Kayla M.","family":"Kauffman","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Wyoming State Veterinary Laboratory, University of Wyoming, 1174 Snowy Range Road, Laramie, Wyoming 82070, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Todd","family":"Cornish","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Wyoming State Veterinary Laboratory, University of Wyoming, 1174 Snowy Range Road, Laramie, Wyoming 82070, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kevin","family":"Monteith","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Haub School of Natural Resources, University of Wyoming, 804 E Fremont Street, Laramie, Wyoming 82072, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Brant","family":"Schumaker","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Wyoming State Veterinary Laboratory, University of Wyoming, 1174 Snowy Range Road, Laramie, Wyoming 82070, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Tayler","family":"LaSharr","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Haub School of Natural Resources, University of Wyoming, 804 E Fremont Street, Laramie, Wyoming 82072, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Katey","family":"Huggler","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Haub School of Natural Resources, University of Wyoming, 804 E Fremont Street, Laramie, Wyoming 82072, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Myrna","family":"Miller","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Wyoming State Veterinary Laboratory, University of Wyoming, 1174 Snowy Range Road, Laramie, Wyoming 82070, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"4415","reference":[{"key":"13","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"LW Woods, RS Hanley, PH Chiu, et al.  \"Vet Pathol.\"  36, \"Lesions and transmission of experimental adenovirus hemorrhagic disease in black-tailed deer fawns.\" 100 (1999)","DOI":"10.1354\/vp.36-2-100"},{"key":"15","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"LW Woods, HD Lehmkuhl, LA Hobbs, et al.  \"J Vet Diagn Invest.\"  20, \"Evaluation of the pathogenic potential of cervid adenovirus in calves.\" 33 (2008)","DOI":"10.1177\/104063870802000106"},{"key":"18","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"LW Woods, PK Swift, BC Barr, et al.  \"Vet Pathol.\"  33, \"Systemic adenovirus infection associated with high mortality in mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus) in California.\" 125 (1996)","DOI":"10.1177\/030098589603300201"},{"key":"11","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"DE.
