Infectious Bronchitis Virus (IBV) Infection


ABSTRACT: Infectious bronchitis virus (IBV), is a coronavirus which infects chickens (Gallus gallus), and is one of the foremost causes of economic loss within the poultry industry, affecting the performance of both meat-type and egg-laying birds. The virus replicates not only in the epithelium of upper and lower respiratory tract tissues, but also in many tissues along the alimentary tract and elsewhere e.g. kidney, oviduct and testes. It can be detected in both respiratory and faecal material. There is increasing evidence that IBV can infect species of bird other than the chicken. Interestingly breeds of chicken vary with respect to the severity of infection with IBV, which may be related to the immune response (Cavanagh, 2006). Here we examine differential expression of genes in the trachea of susceptible and resistant birds, in order to identify genes which may be involved in resistance to IBV.
