Application of molecular methods in diagnostics and epizootiology of animal viral diseases

Molecular methods provide new alternatives for characterization of viruses and for the diagnosis of animal diseases. A wide range of PCR assays have been developed for routine detection of viral nucleic acid in different clinical specimens. Sequences obtained by direct sequencing of PCR products are used to deduce phylogenetic relationships among virus isolates in order to trace virus evolution and routes of dissemination. Direct sequence analysis of PCR products is now regulary used for the identification of genetic variants of variouse viruses.
