During a field trial to evaluate the efficacy of repeated vaccinations with bovine herpesvirus type 1 (BHV‐1) marker vaccines, a glycoprotein E (gE)‐negative BHV‐1 strain was isolated from the nasal secretions of two cows, eight months after vaccination with a gE‐negative live‐attenuated vaccine, initially given intranasally, then intramuscularly. The strain isolated was characterised using immunofluorescence, restriction analysis and CR. All the techniques used identified the isolated virus as a gE‐negative BHV‐1 phenotypically and genotypically identical to the Za strain used as a control.
