Abstract
We have investigated the genomic properties of three turkey reovirus strains—19831M09, D1246, and D1104—isolated in Hungary in 2009. Sequence identity values and phylogenetic calculations indicated genetic conservativeness among the studied Hungarian strains and a close relationship with strains isolated in the United States.
Highlights
We have investigated the genomic properties of three turkey reovirus strains—19831M09, D1246, and D1104 —isolated in Hungary in 2009
Turkey reovirus (TRV) infections are usually associated with different disease manifestations including arthritis, tenosynovitis, myocarditis, and/or enteric symptoms (6, 10–13)
In this study we investigated the genomic properties of three TRV field strains isolated in Hungary in 2009
Summary
We have investigated the genomic properties of three turkey reovirus strains—19831M09, D1246, and D1104 —isolated in Hungary in 2009. With the exception of the S1 or S4, which encode two or three partially overlapping open reading frames, all genomic segments are monocistronic (1). ARVs and reovirus associated diseases have been detected worldwide since the middle of the last century in commercial poultry and in different wild-living or captive-bred bird species (2–9).
