Abstract
Isolates of equine herpesvirus type 1 (EHV-1) originating from affected antelope and cattle were compared with reference EHV-1 and EHV-4 isolates and were characterized. Based on cross-neutralization, DNA restriction profiles and blot-hybridization data these isolates could be characterized as EHV-1. One isolate (from an antelope) with a different restriction profile showed significant DNA homology with EHV-1, partial homology with EHV-4, and little or no homology with EHV-2 and HSV-1 DNAs. Blot hybridization revealed differences in DNA restriction fragments located at the termini of two isolates and size heterogeneity in the unique long/internal repeat junction fragment (UL/IR) of one isolate.Entities:
