Abstract
A physical map was constructed for bovine papillomavirus type 2 DNA by the use of restriction endonucleases. A comparison between the genomes of bovine papillomavirus types I and 2 in regard to location and number of cleavage sites of seven enzymes is also presented. This comparison revealed similarities between the two genomes.
