| equine encephalitis | <veterinary> An acute, often fatal, virus disease of horses and mules transmitted by mosquitoes and characterised by central nervous system disturbances. It is typically caused by one of two arthropod-borne viruses, and their resulting diseases are designated western equine or eastern equine encephalomyelitis; these viruses belong to the family Togaviridae and can also cause neurologic disease in humans. Synonym: equine encephalitis. (05 Mar 2000) |

| equine herpesvirus 4 | <virology> A virus causing equine rhinopneumonitis in horses. (05 Mar 2000) |
| equine infectious anaemia | <veterinary> virology> Viral disease of horses caused by the equine infectious anaemia virus (eiav; infectious anaemia virus, equine). It is characterised by intermittent fever, weakness, and anaemia. Chronic infection consists of acute episodes with remissions. (12 Dec 1998) |
| equine infectious anaemia virus | <virology> A retrovirus, of the Lentivirinae subfamily, and the cause of equine infectious anaemia. Synonym: swamp fever virus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| equine influenza | <veterinary, virology> A highly contagious upper respiratory infection of horses and other equids caused by equine strains of influenza virus type A. It is characterised by fever and respiratory signs similar to but more severe than those of equine rhinopneumonitis; oedema of the lower trunk and limbs (epizootic cellulitis) may occur; the disease is frequently fatal when secondary bacterial pneumonia intervenes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| equine leukoencephalomalacia | <veterinary> A mycotoxic disease of horses, mules, and donkeys associated with eating moldy corn containing the fungus Fusarium moniliforme; the causative toxin is fumonisin B1, which produces apathy, pharyngeal paralysis, blindness, staggering, and recumbency. (05 Mar 2000) |
