AI Article Synopsis
- The study details the complete nucleotide sequence of a new reassortant strain of infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) identified in broiler flocks in China.
- The genome is made up of two segments, A (3,232 nucleotides) and B (2,652 nucleotides), with origins from different strains: segment A from the vaccine strain B87 and segment B from the virulent strain OKYM.
- This finding indicates the emergence of a novel IBDV strain in nature, highlighting potential implications for poultry health and vaccine effectiveness.
Article Abstract
We report the complete nucleotide sequence of a reassortant infectious bursal disease (IBD) virus (IBDV) HN isolate from commercial broiler flocks in central China. The genome consisted of 3,232 and 2,652 nucleotides in the coding regions of segments A and B, respectively. Alignment of both nucleotide and deduced amino acid sequences and phylogenetic analysis revealed that the genome segments A and B of HN were derived from the attenuated strain B87 and the VV strain OKYM. This is a new reassortant IBDV strain that has emerged in nature, involving segment A of a cell-culture-adapted attenuated vaccine strain B87.
