OVINE HERPES VIRUS TYPE 2 (GANGRENOUS CORYZA)
Gangrenous coryza is a disease of large ruminants and pigs characterised by high fever and usually fatal. Found in most parts of the world, the disease's clinical manifestations can vary enormously, from an acute form with mild symptoms to a more typical form with high fever, erosive ulceration of the gastrointestinal mucosa, keratoconjunctivitis with corneal opacity, and copious ocular and nasal discharge.
Gangrenous coryza is caused by a virus belonging to the genus Rhadinovirus (of the Herpesviridae family), specifically one of two different gamma-herpesviruses. The natural host of Alcelaphine herpesvirus 1 (AIHV-1) is the wildebeest in which the infection is silent. The disease appears in various parts of Africa, in a wide variety of ruminant species in zoological parks. Ovine herpesvirus 2 (OvHV-2) is prevalent in all races of domesticated sheep in which it causes a sub-clinical infection.
