Biological and molecular aspects of bovine herpesvirus 4 (BHV-4)

1991

Goltz, M. | Ludwig, H.

This review summarizes most recent information on the bovine cytomegalovirus BHV-4. The virus is not associated with clearly defined clinical entities in cattle. It can easily be isolated in tissue culture and has a broad host range. BHV-4 strains are rather similar in restriction enzyme analysis of their DNAs, the size of the pr DNAs, however, differs. The genome represents a gamma-herpesvirus. Because of its uniqueness BHV-4 is discussed as an appropriate vector.
