The novel duck reovirus (NDRV) disease first appeared in China in 2011. Infected ducks may be of various ages and breeds. Sigma B protein, which is the key component of NDRV's outer capsid, may trigger group-specific neutralizing antibodies linked to NDRV infection, pathogenicity, and immune defense. The sigma B protein gene of fourteen NDRV field strains was amplified by RT-PCR and cloned into the pMD-18 T...
