  • A highly contagious virus
  • Affects the respiratory, urinary, and reproductive systems of the chickens

Types of IBV

  • High mutation rate and recombination ability of the IB virus.
  • This is why there is no single IB virus, but many IB viruses
  • Different genetic groups

INFECTIOUS BRONCHITIS

Avian infectious bronchitis (IB) is probably one of the most widespread poultry diseases around the world, due to its highly contagious nature. It is caused by a gamma coronavirus that affects the respiratory, urinary, and reproductive systems of the chickens, causing different disorders depending on the tissue tropism characteristics of the invading viral strain.

An additional issue is the high mutation rate and recombination ability of the IB virus. For this reason, there is not one single IB virus, but many IB viruses.
