The sequences of four complete genes were analysed in order to determine the relatedness of koi herpesvirus (KHV) to three fish viruses in the family Herpesviridae: carp pox herpesvirus (Cyprinid herpesvirus 1, CyHV-1), haematopoietic necrosis herpesvirus of goldfish (Cyprinid herpesvirus 2, CyHV-2) and channel catfish virus (Ictalurid herpesvirus 1, IcHV-1). The genes were predicted to encode ...

the aim of this study was to investigate the hemagglutination properties of caprine herpesvirus-1(cphv-1) and their application for cphv-1 antigen detection and evaluation of the dynamics of postinfectious/vaccine antibody production. cphv-1 hemagglutination activity was proved only with mouseerythrocytes, pbs and saline solutions at 4°c and 22°c. in vaccinated animals, goats and bucks withresp...

upper respiratory tract diseases (urtd) are common clinical problem in cats worldwide. feline calicivirus (fcv) and feline herpesvirus type 1 (fhv-1) are the main primary pathogens. feline immunodeficiency virus (fiv) and feline leukemia virus (felv) are also among the most common infectious diseases of cats which suppress the immunity. oropharyngeal and conjunctival swabs and blood samples wer...

Bovine herpesvirus 1 (BoHV-1) is one of the most important infectious viruses of cattle which is considered as the causative agent of several clinical conditions in this species. Hence, we tried to isolate a local strain of the virus from carrier cattle in Ahvaz based on a strategy for reactivation of the latent infection in hosts having antibodies against the virus. Thus, 20 cattle were examin...

The herpesviruses infections in equides are caused by five different serotypes of viruses, belonging to family Herpesviridae. The goal of this study was to conduct a seroepidemiological investigation of equine herpesvirus type 1 (EHV-1) and type 4 (EHV-4) in horses and donkeys raised in two provinces and their villages in northeastern Turkey. A total of 666 samples from 423 horses and 243 donke...

This review summarises the occurrence of herpesvirus infections in pinnipeds and data from investigations carried out by the authors. These data demonstrate that herpesvirus isolates collected from harbour seals (Phoca vitulina Linnaeus, 1758) during the 1988 seal epidemic were almost indistinguishable from feline herpesvirus 1 and that Antarctic Weddell's seals (Leptonychotes weddelli Lesson, ...

We used deep sequencing of poly(A) RNA to characterize the transcriptome of an economically important eel virus, anguillid herpesvirus 1 (AngHV1), at a stage during the lytic life cycle when infectious virus was being produced. In contrast to the transcription of mammalian herpesviruses, the overall level of antisense transcription from the 248,526-bp genome was low, amounting to only 1.5% of t...
