Publisher's Synopsis
This book is based on papers presented at the first scientific congress of the European Society for Veterinary Virology, which was attended by 230 delegates, and held at the University of Liege in Belgium from 5 to 7 April 1989. The main theme of the congress was ``The Contribution of Molecular Biology to Veterinary Virology''. The congress itself took the form of a series of keynote addresses by renowned scientists, together with selected papers from congress delegates, and a poster display. Three specialist sessions focussed respectively on the seal morbillivirus, bovine herpesvirus 1, and bovine virus diarrhoea virus, while a small informal meeting reviewed current knowledge on rabbit haemorrhagic disease.
