【 摘 要 】

References(21)Cited-By(1)A strain of equine herpesvirus type 1 (EHV-1) was isolated from zebra. Thisstrain, called “zebra-borne EHV-1�?, was also isolated from an onager and a gazelle inzoological gardens in U.S.A. The full genome sequences of the 3 strains were determined.They shared 99% identities with each other, while they shared 98% and 95% identities withthe horse derived EHV-1 and equine herpesvirus type 9, respectively. Sequence dataindicated that the EHV-1 isolated from a polar bear in Germany is one of the zebra-borneEHV-1 and not a recombinant virus. These results indicated that zebra-borne EHV-1 is asubtype of EHV-1.
