A REVIEW OF VIRAL INFECTIONS OF HORSES	2008-03-10		.txt	text/plain	2275	128	53	In Australia, extensive investigation of respiratory diseases seen in horses in Victoria and Queensland have shown that equine herpesvirus type 1 (rhinopneumonitis) is the most common aetiological agent (Duxbury and Oxer 1968; Bagust and Pascoe 1968, 1970) . These clinical signs may be produced by any of several groups of viruses (Studdert 1967) , including equine herpesvirus type 1 (previously called equine influenza virus, then *This is the third article in a series of reviews on viral diseases of animals. Virus diseases of the skin of horses in Australia have not been investigated in detail, but there is ample clinical evidence for the occurrence of equine cutaneous papillomatosis (warts), caused by a host-specific papovavirus and appearing approximately 2 -3 months after infection. Equine viral arteritis has not been detected in Australian horses, but the disease is important in that clinical signs of acute infection (fever, depression, ocular and nasal discharges, oedema of the eyelids, limbs and abdomen, coughing and difficulty in breathing, colic, enteritis, jaundice, abortion) could be confused with infection by several viruses previously discussed.	./cache/cord-271313-h9v0nmx5.txt	./txt/cord-271313-h9v0nmx5.txt
