Infectious bronchitis is an acute and highly contagious disease in chickens caused by the infectious bronchitis virus (IBV), which has caused significant economic losses to the poultry industry worldwide. The antigenic variant, the QX-like genotype (GI-19 lineage), has been currently reported in epidemics in East Asia, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Europe, and Africa. We first reported an epidemic of Japanese QX-like IBVs genetically related to Chinese and South Korean strains in the Kyushu region of Japan in 2020.

Background And Aim: The high prevalence of QX-like variant among Thai isolates poses a significant threat to poultry production. In this study, we evaluated the protective efficacy of commercially available heterologous infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) vaccines against the local Thai QX-like strain in specific-pathogen-free (SPF) chicks from Thailand.
Materials And Methods: The experiment involved 100 SPF chicks divided into 4 arms.

Infectious bronchitis virus (IBV), an avian coronavirus, has caused considerable damage to the poultry industry. In Korea, indigenous KM91-like and newly introduced QX-like lineages belonging to the GI-19 lineage have been prevalent despite constant vaccination. In this study, complete genome sequences of 23 IBV isolates in Korea from 2010 to 2020 were obtained using next-generation sequencing, and their phylogenetic relationship and recombination events were analyzed.

Background And Aim: QX-like infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) is a highly infectious avian coronavirus that causes respiratory and kidney disease. It is linked to increased mortality and loss of performance in infected chickens worldwide, including Thailand. Thus, a simple and rapid diagnostic method for the diagnosis of QX-like IBV is needed.
