Chicken infectious anaemia virus (CIAV) is an economically important pathogen affecting poultry industry worldwide. Commercial poultry flocks (26) suspected to be affected with chicken infectious anaemia (CIA) were processed for Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) using VP2 gene primers and characterized by partial gene sequencing. The PCR revealed 26.9% (7/26) poultry flocks positive for CIAV. Eleven PCR products of CIAV DNA were sequenced. The partial nucleotide sequence analysis of VP2 genes revealed that 11 field strains had 99.2 to 100% similarity among themselves and with the Indian strains. The VP2 gene sequences of 11 field strains showed 97.5 to 100% similarity to the field strains sequences reported from all over the world. On the basis of partial nucleotide sequencing analysis of VP2 gene, our findings suggest that the viral strains circulating in Haryana have similarity to other Indian strains.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
