The purpose of this book is to provide a timely and comprehensive review on all the mononegaviruses of veterinary importance. The book is divided into two sections. Section I deals with 13 mononegaviruses (Bornaviruses, Avian Paramyxoviruses serotypes 1 to 10, Hendra and Nipah viruses, Canine distemper virus, Peste des petits ruminants virus, Rinderpest virus, Bovine parainfluenza virus, Swine parainfluenza virus, Porcine rubulavirus (PoRV -LPMV), Bovine respiratory syncytial virus, Avian metapneumoviruses, Bovine ephemeral fever virus and Rabies virus) of livestock, horses, dogs and cats; whereas Section II comprises of 9 other mononegaviruses (Ebolavirus, Marburgvirus, Phocine distemper virus, Morbilliviruses, Sendai virus, pneumonia virus, Infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus, Viral haemorrhagic septicaemia virus and Snakehead rhabdovirus) of rodents, primates, fish and sea mammals. A full chapter is dedicated to each virus which provides up-to-date literature on historical distribution, genome structure, viral proteins, reverse genetics, immunity, viral pathogenesis, clinical and molecular diagnosis and future challenges. Every chapter is written by renowned scientists who have made seminal contributions in their respective mononegavirus fields of expertise. Each chapter is attempted to make as stand-alone document, making it a valuable reference source for virologists, field veterinarians, infection and molecular biologists, immunologists, scientists in related fields and veterinary school libraries.
