“…Antigenic relations were established previously among the isolates DN-599, FTC and V 11 (Potgieter & Mare, 1974). The DNA genomes of the viral strains 75-P-2756, 66-P-347, DN-599, DDV-71, Movar and LIT have virtually identical restriction enzyme patterns, which differ from those ofBHV-1 (IBR and IPV), BHV-2, BHV-3 (Ludwig, 1983), and BHV-6 (Engels et al, 1983). Consequently, we propose to classify the BHV-4 collection of viral isolates as bovine cytomegaloviruses on a tentative basis, pending further comparisons with other herpesviruses.…”

“…Herpesviruses were isolated from lungs of sheep (Malmquist et al, 1972;De Villiers et al, 1975), and these isolates were later categorized as BHV-5 by De Villiers (1979). The herpesvirus associated with enteritis and death of newborn goats was differentiated as BHV-6 by Engels et al (1983).…”

“…A one way cross-neutralisation can be demonstrated for each combination of BoHV-1 and related alphaherpesviruses. Therefore, BoHV-1 specific antiserum neutralises the heterologous virus to a greater extent than anti-sera specific to related alphaherpesviruses that have been shown to neutralise BoHV-1 [29,39,83,86].…”

Ruminant alphaherpesviruses related to bovine herpesvirus 1

-Herpesviruses have mainly co-evolved with their hosts for millions of years. Consequently, different related host species may have been infected by various genetically related herpesviruses. Illustrating this concept, several ruminant alphaherpesviruses have been shown to form a cluster of viruses closely related to bovine herpesvirus 1 (BoHV-1): namely bovine herpesvirus 5, bubaline herpesvirus 1, caprine herpesvirus 1, cervid herpesviruses 1 and 2 and elk herpesvirus 1. These viruses share common antigenic properties and the serological relationships between them can be considered as a threat to BoHV-1 eradication programmes. BoHV-1 is a herpesvirus responsible for infectious bovine rhinotracheitis, which is a disease of major economic concern. In this article, the genetic properties of these ruminant alphaherpesviruses are reviewed on a comparative basis and the issue of interspecific recombination is assessed. The pathogenesis of these infections is described with emphasis on the host range and crossing of the host species barrier. Indeed, the non bovine ruminant species susceptible to these ruminant alphaherpesviruses may be potential BoHV-1 reservoirs. The differential diagnosis of these related infections is also discussed. In addition, available epidemiological data are used to assess the potential of cross-infection in ruminant populations. A better knowledge of these ruminant alphaherpesvirus infections is essential to successfully control infectious bovine rhinotracheitis.

“…Virions of the PhHV-2 isolate 7848 were purified as described by Lebich et al (1994). DNA was extracted following exactly the protocol of Engels et al (1983). DNA was digested with EeoRI and fragments were cloned into pUC 18.…”

To study the relationships between herpesviruses recently isolated from different pinniped species, antigenic and genetic analyses were performed. First, herpesviruses isolated from North American harbour seals (Phoca vitulina), a Californian sea lion (Zalophus californianus) and a European grey seal (Halichoerus grypus) were examined in an enzyme immunoassay (EIA) with a panel of monoclonal antibodies which had previously been shown to allow typing of herpesviruses from European harbour seals into two distinct virus types: phocid herpesvirus type-1 and type-2 (PhHV-1 and PhHV-2). The EIA data showed that all but one of the isolates from seals ranging in United States coastal waters were PhHV-2-1ike while the European grey seal herpesvirus was PhHV-l-like. Genetic characterization was facilitated by PCR analysis using primers based on conserved regions of the glycoprotein B and D (gB and gD) genes of the antigenically closely related canid (CHV) and felid (FHV) herpesviruses. Specific amplified products were obtained with five isolates antigenically characterized as PhHV-l-like but not with five PhHV-2-like isolates. Sequence analysis of the PCR products confirmed greatest similarity to members of the genus Varicellovirus of the Alphaherpesvirinae and in particular to CHV. Sequence analysis of two EcoRI fragments of the PhHV-2 genome (European isolate 7848) revealed greatest similarity to gammaherpesviruses and in particular equine herpesvirus-2. Although an unambiguous subgrouping was not feasible, this is the first evidence that PhHV-2 may be a putative gammaherpesvirus of pinnipeds.
