Differential diagnosis between type-specific duck hepatitis virus type 1 (DHV-1) and recent Korean DHV-1-like isolates using a multiplex polymerase chain reaction

Abstract excerpt

Duck hepatitis can be caused by four types of viruses: duck hepatitis virus (DHV) type 1 (DHV-1), DHV-1a (a variant strain of DHV-1), DHV-2 and DHV-3.
