  • Title: Structural and growth characteristics of two avian reoviruses.
    Author: Nick H, Cursiefen D, Becht H.
    Journal: Arch Virol; 1975; 48(3):261-9. PubMed ID: 170888.
    Abstract:
    Two virus strains which had been suspected to be the etiological agents of infectious bursitis (Gumboro disease) and of inclusion body hepatitis of chickens were characterized by their morphology, their peptide composition and the segmented genome of their double-stranded RNA to be typical reoviruses. Although the 2 avian strains did not clearly differ in their serological behaviour, the size of some of their RNA segments were not identical. Both strains replicated in tissue cultures prepared from the chorioallantoic membrane of embryonated eggs with growth characteristics of reoviruses.
