Abstract |
The VP2 full gene of Korean infectious bursal disease virus(IBDV) strain, SH/92, three attenuated vaccine strains, Bur706, Bursine-2 and CEV/AC strains, were amplified by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction and sequenced and compared with published VP2 gene sequences of IBDVs. The VP2 nucleotide sequence similarity between SH/92 and three vaccine stains was 95.6~96.5% whereas the nucleic acid similarity among three vaccine strains was 97.5~98.5%. The amino acid sequence similarity of VP2 of SH/92 compared with three vaccine strains was between 94.4 and 97.6% while the amino acid similarity among three vaccine strains was between 97.4 and 98.4%. The amino acid similarity between SH/92 and classical virulent strain, 52/70 and STC strain was 96.4 and 96.5%, respectively. The serine-rich heptapeptide was conserved in CEVAC and Bursine-2 as well as SH/92 but not in Bur706. The phylogenetic tree developed from amino acid sequences showed that SH/92 was categorized with vv IBDVs(HK46, OKYM, KKI, UPM94/273, SH95) in one branch while three vaccine strains were catagorized with STC strain in the other branch. |
