Abstract: Infectious bursal disease virus isolates obtained from southern parts of India were subjected to comparative sequencing and phylogenetic analysis of 743bp hypervariable region of VP2. The sequence analysis showed that among eight isolates, only HY12 showed the characteristic conserved amino acid residues at 256I, 294I, and 299S of vvIBDV. Six isolates BGE14, PY12, NKL14, VCN14, RPM14 and EDE14 had conserved amino acid residues at 256I and 299S, whereas at residue 294, isoleucine was substituted by valine. The remaining isolate MB11 had leucine at residue 294 and asparagine at residue 299 similar to classical strain 52/70. The serine-rich heptapeptide sequence SWSASGS adjacent to the second hydrophilic region was conserved in all seven Indian IBDV isolates except isolate MB11. Conservation of this sequence was earlier reported to be an indication of a virus isolate being pathogenic in nature. The reported heptapeptide sequence of the classical strain is ‘SWSARGS’. In the present study, ‘SWSARGS’ heptapeptide sequence was observed in MB11 isolate. The pathogenicity trials conducted with these isolates further confirmed the genome analysis in classification. This study further reveals that the circulating IBDV strains in India could be diverse in nature. |
