This volume provides detailed methods to support fast and reliable diagnosis, surveillance and control of Epizootic Haemorrhagic disease virus (EHDV), with the aim of facilitating and promoting further research into this understudied . Chapters guide readers through methods to enable the characterization of EHDV and Written in the highly successful   series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and key tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Authoritative and cutting-edge,  aims to be a useful up-to-date reference work for researchers currently in the field and to those entering the field.
