Abstract excerpt
We performed a molecular epidemiology study of infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) from six provinces in southern China by analyzing IBDVs isolated during the years 2000-2010. Sequence analysis of hypervariable regions of the VP2 gene (vVP2) in the genome of these isolates revealed that the majority of these viruses (45/59) were characterized as vv (very virulent) IBDV genotype, 12 out of 59 isolates were...
