abstract
This review article summarizes information on description of BoHV -1 virus, BoHV -1 viral genome and its proteins and the latency of BoHV -1 virus. There are different sero-survey, antigen and antibody detection tests available to identify the risk factors and the sero-positivity for BHV-1 infection but only some of them are well defined. The prevalence of Bovine Herpes Virus -1 infection by molecular detection of antigen by Polymerase Chain Reaction and molecular detection of antibody by Enzyme Linked Immuno Assay among infected cattle, which are asymptomatic but continue to circulate the virus between the environment and susceptible animals, the Age wise prevalence, Species wise prevalence and Breed wise prevalence for BoHV -1 virus infection in Cattle can determines and play a significant role in the development of the disease.
