 A First Molecular Phylogeny of an Egyptian Equine Herpesvirus-4 Strain Derived from a Fetal Arabian horse

An Egyptian equine herpes virus-4 isolate derived from aborted-fetal liver specimens of Arabian breed horses collected between March 2014 and February 2015 was molecularly detected and characterized. Viral deoxyribonucleic acid fragment equivalent to 580bp specific glycoprotein B primer sets was retrieved from a liver specimen assigning the identification of EHV-4 VRLCU 412-2015 strain.
