title: Macropodid herpesviruses 1 and 2: two herpesviruses from Australian marsupials differentiated by restriction endonucleases, DNA composition and hybridization. Brief report.
abstract: The DNAs of a number of herpesviruses from Australian marsupials have been analyzed using restriction endonucleases, dot-blot hybridizations, and analytical ultracentrifugation in CsCl. The data clearly show the presence of 2 distinct viruses, designated macropodid herpesviruses 1 and 2.
