Abstract
The clinical signs, significance and relevance of EHV infections are reviewed, and the research of recent developments on their molecular biology are presented. Data on restriction enzyme analysis and blot hybridization support the separation of EHV-4 from EHV-1. Both viruses share common cross-reacting glycoproteins significant for diagnostics and treatment. Molecular biological data show clearly that EHV-1 can cross the species barrier, causing disease in ruminants. Despite considerable DNA heterogeneities amongst EHV-2 strains, hybridization studies with various strains showed a high degree of homology. Application of rapid screening methods for the differentiation of field isolates and suggestions on vaccination programs are discussed briefly.
