There was a high incidence of neonatal scours in 38 litters of pigs born at Compton in a four month period during 1978. The most important cause of the disease was an enteropathogenic Escherichia coli strain which possessed the K88 antigen. The Compton herd has been bred to produce pigs of three genotypes with respect to the presence or absence of the intestinal receptor for the K88 antigen. These are homozygous dominants (SS) and heterozygotes (Ss) susceptible to infection by virulent K88-positive E coli, and homozygous recessives (ss) resistant to the disease. The highest incidence of diarrhoea was in the susceptible progeny of resistant dams and susceptible sires. There was no K88 associated diarrhoea in resistant progeny or in susceptible progeny of susceptible dams.
