Rapid Spread of Novel Infectious Bursal Disease Virus Variant (Genotype A2dB1b) in the Near East and Persian Gulf Regions: Molecular Surveillance and Phylodynamic Reconstruction.

Abstract excerpt

Infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) is one of the most impactful pathogens of poultry, with disease manifestations ranging from acute forms to subclinical but immunosuppressive infections. This heterogeneity, accompanied by a significant antigenic variability, is sustained by high mutation rates and frequent reassortments between the two genome segments, along with less frequent recombination events. In recent...
