The study related to the viruses in animals is known as veterinary virology. It is a sub-field of veterinary medicine. Each animal species is affected by different types of viruses. However, there are also some viruses which can affect different species as well as both vertebrates and invertebrates. Some of the viruses which affect vertebrates are bluetongue virus, rabies virus and rhabdovirus. Bluetongue virus generally infects livestock while rabies virus can infect a large variety of animals such as dogs, monkeys, foxes and bats. Rhabdovirus is single stranded, negative sense RNA virus inheriting six genera that infect a wide variety of animals such as cattle, fish, horse, bovine, etc. Invertebrates such as honey bees are infected by deformed wing virus. This book contains some path-breaking studies in the field of veterinary virology. Different approaches, evaluations, methodologies and advanced studies on veterinary virology have been included herein. Researchers and students in this field will be assisted by the content of this book.

Veterinary virology is a major branch of veterinary medicine that studies viruses in non-human animals. Some of the viruses studied under this discipline are rhabdoviruses, foot and mouth disease viruses, pestiviruses, parvoviruses, coronaviruses, toroviruses and influenza etc. Rhabdoviruses are single stranded, negative sense RNA viruses which can infect a wide variety of animals. A few examples of rhabdoviruses are rabies virus and vesicular stomatitis virus. Foot and mouth disease viruses are non-enveloped, positive strand, RNA viruses that cause foot and mouth diseases in animals such as cattle, sheep and pigs. Pestiviruses are made up of single stranded, positive-sense RNA genomes. Diseases like classic swine fever and bovine viral diarrhea are caused due to these viruses. Parvoviruses are one of the tiniest viruses. They cause diseases in the gastrointestinal tract and lymphatic system. This book explores all the important aspects of veterinary virology. It also elucidates some of the vital pieces of work conducted across the world, on various topics related to this field. The extensive content of this book provides the readers with a thorough understanding of the subject.

There are many viruses that affect the health of animals, and the field of study related to viruses in animals is known as veterinary virology. Some of these viruses have their own range and infect particular species. There are also some viruses which can affect different species. Veterinary virology focuses on the study of viruses like rhabdoviruses, foot and mouth disease viruses, circoviruses, herpes viruses and retroviruses. Rhabdoviruses are single stranded, negative sense RNA viruses inheriting six genera which infect a wide variety of plants and animals. Foot and mouth disease viruses are positive strand, non-enveloped, RNA viruses that can cause foot and mouth diseases in animals. Herpes viruses consist of ubiquitous pathogens which can infect both animals and humans. Retroviruses are a type of viruses that can cause cancer or immune deficiency. This book provides comprehensive insights into the field of veterinary virology. Its aim is to present researches that have transformed this discipline and aided its advancement. This book aims to serve as a resource guide for students and experts alike and contribute to the growth of the discipline.
