Common viral antigens were detected, by fluorescent-antibody studies, in cells infected with herpes simplex virus 1, squirrel monkey herpesvirus 1, bovine rhinotracheitis, and equine abortion viruses. The two primate viruses showed slight cross-neutralization.

Bovine reproductive disease attributable to bovine herpes virus-1 (BoHV-1) was first described in Germany in the 19th century, being recognised primarily as the cause of infectious vulvovaginitis and balanoposthitis until the mid-1950s when a more virulent strain of the virus (BoHV-1.1) associated with respiratory disease (infectious bovine rhinotracheitis; IBR) emerged in the western United St...

Bovine herpes viruses belong to the family Herpesviridae. Bovine herpes virus 1 (BHV-1) is of world wide distribution and causes a wide range of diseases in cattle namely respiratory disease, keratoconjunctivitis and reproductive diseases including infectious pustular vulvovaginitis (IPV) in cows, infectious pustular balonoposthitis (IPB) in bulls and abortions. DNA studies of BHV-1 have reveal...
