Abstract
Comparative analysis by RNA oligonucleotide fingerprints of total genomic RNA as well as the individual RNA segments of equine 2 influenza A virus strains from 1963, 1968, 1979, 1984, 1987 and 1988 revealed genetic diversity. Strains from the epizootic outbreak during 1978–1979 showed minor differences among their genomes. The Swedish isolates from 1979 up to 1988 showed increasing genomic heterogeneity indicating genetic drift.
