Complete genomic sequence and comparative analysis of four genital and respiratory isolates of bovine herpesvirus subtype 1.2b (BoHV-1.2b), including the prototype virus strain K22.

Abstract excerpt

Bovine herpesvirus subtype 1.2b (BoHV-1.2b) is associated primarily with bovine infectious pustular vulvovaginitis. We report here the complete genomic sequence of four BoHV-1.2b isolates. The DNA sequence identity of the four genomes is 98.9 %. Differences were primarily in regions containing direct repeats, specifically gene UL36 and the terminal repeat regions immediately flanking gene BICP22. BoHV-1.2b and...
