Abstract:
After a brief historical account of the outbreak of infectious arteritis of horses which occurred in 1984 in Kentucky (United States of America), the author reports on the present state of knowledge concerning the organisation of the genome of the virus. Clinical signs of the disease are described, as well as modes and routes of transmission. Finally, currently-available vaccination procedures are discussed and their value is assessed.
