Reversion of molecularly engineered, partially attenuated, very virulent infectious bursal disease virus during infection of commercial chickens
1 Apr 2004
Abstract excerpt
A molecularly cloned, tissue culture-adapted infectious bursal disease virus (BD-3tc) was generated from a very virulent strain by the reverse genetics approach following site-directed mutagenesis (Q253H and A284T in VP2). The pathogenicity of BD-3tc was tested in commercial chickens. The wild-type strain (BD-3wt) and the molecularly cloned parental strain (BD-3mc) were included for comparison. The subclinical...
