Abstract:Infectious Bronchitis Virus (IBV) is a gammacoronavirus that is prevalent in commercial chicken flocks, resulting in characteristic clinical signs including snicking, rales, decreased tracheal ciliary activity, reduced weight gain and reduced egg production. Preliminary results indicate that there is a different clinical response to IBV infection in different chicken lines. Therefore, we aim to determine whether there is a differential innate or humoral immune response to IBV between chicken lines.
