=Introduction=
Adenoviruses are so named for the tissue from which they were first recovered: human adenoid tissue. Since then they have been found in most species and are generally harmless.
=Morphology=
*Stable, non-enveloped, resistant
*Icosahedral virus:
**Capsomeres at apices (12) carry a peripheral fiber with a terminal knob
**Capsomeres on facets (240) do not
=Virus by Species=
===[[Respiratory Viral Infections - Pathology#Bovine adenovirus|Bovine adenovirus]]===
===Equine Adenovirus===
*Rarely causes primary disease
*Exception: immune-compromised Arab foals (showing both B/T cell deficiencies), causing necrotising [[Respiratory Viral Infections - Pathology#Equine adenovirus|bronchiolitis]]
