Abstract excerpt
Equine herpesvirus type 1 (EHV-1) causes abortion, respiratory infection, and neurological diseases (equine herpesvirus myeloencephalopathy) in horses. A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) associated with a single amino acid in the DNA polymerase gene (ORF30, in which D752 is neuropathogenic and N752 is non-neuropathogenic) of EHV-1 has been associated with neuropathogenicity in horses. We constructed an EHV-1...
