Abstract excerpt
A molecular epidemiology study of infectious bursal disease viruses (IBDVs) isolated from seven provinces in southern China during the years 2000-2012 was performed based on partial sequences of genome segments A and B, namely the hypervariable region of the A-VP2 gene (A-vVP2) and the b fragment of VP1 gene (B-VP1b) from a total of 91 field isolates. Sequence analysis based on vVP2 revealed that 72 out of 91...
