N2 - During 2008?2009 in Israel, equine encephalosis virus (EEV) caused febrile outbreaks in horses. Phylogenetic analysis of segment 10 of the virus strains showed that they form a new cluster; analysis of segment 2 showed ≅ 92% sequence identity to EEV-3, the reference isolate. Thus, the source of this emerging EEV remains uncertain.
