Abstract
Fowl adenovirus serotype 11 (FAdV-11) is one of the main causative agents of inclusion body hepatitis (IBH) in broilers. Outbreaks of FAdV-11-related IBH have been increasingly reported in China and many other geographical areas worldwide. However, the critical virulence factors of FAdV-11 remain uncertain due to the lack of technical platforms for efficient manipulation of FAdV-11 genome. Here, we reported the establishment of a FAdV-11 reverse genetic system based on a novel FAdV-11 Chinese isolate FJSW/2021 using the exonuclease combined with RecET (ExoCET), Redαβ recombineering and ccdB counter-selection techniques for the first time. A recombinant FAdV-11 was rescued efficiently by using the established reverse genetic platform through swapping the ORF11 gene of the FAdV-11 FJSW/2021 with the ZsGreen fluorescent protein expression cassette. This study provides an effective technical platform for identifying virulence factors of FAdV-11 and developing recombinant FAdV-11-vectored vaccine candidates.
