Bovine herpesvirus 1 (BoHV-1) causes several clinical syndromes in cattle worldwide. There are 3 subtypes of BoHV-1: 1.1, 1.2a, and 1.2b. Several molecular methods are commonly used in the detection and characterization of BoHV-1. Among them, restriction endonuclease analysis (REA) and single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) analysis of the complete viral genome allow classification of BoHV-1 into different subtypes. However, developing countries need simpler and cheaper screening assays for routine testing. We designed a standard multiplex PCR followed by a REA assay allowing straightforward subclassification of all BoHV-1 isolates tested into 1.1, 1.2a, and 1.2b subtypes based on the analysis of fragment length polymorphism. Our standard multiplex PCR-REA was used to analyze 33 field strains of BoHV-1 isolated from various tissues. The assay confirmed the subtype identified previously by REA. In addition, non-polymorphic or undigested fragments were sequenced in order to confirm the mutation affecting the RE HindIII site. Our PCR-REA method is an affordable and rapid test that will subtype all BoHV-1 strains.

Bovine herpesvirus 1 (BHV-1) is a noteworthy reason for many Cattle/Buffalo diseases. Infectious bovine rhinotracheitis (IBR) is one of the diseases which are caused by the BHV-1. In the present study a cow which was suspected of IBR was examined. The animal was suffering from fever and respiratory distress along with rhinitis (red nose), in appetence, and dyspnea. The nasal mucosa and muzzle were distinctly inflamed, with nasal discharge. DNA from blood samples and nasal swabs were subjected to nested PCR using glycoprotein B gene (gB) Primers. The samples were found positive for BHV-1 gB gene. Sequencing and phylogenetic analysis revealed close similarities with other BHV-1 gB gene sequences. The accession numbers assigned to this pioneer sequences in GenBank are MT449510 (BHV-1-Pak 1) and MT449511 (BHV-1-Pak 2). In this study, we reported for the first time the detection of DNA of BHV-1 through nested PCR assay and molecular characterization of BHV-1 gB gene in Pakistan. This study will be useful in further diagnoses of BHV-1 in Pakistan and in development of BHV-1 vaccine to reduce economical losses due to IBR
