The IBD etiological agent is double stranded RNA virus having two segments which belongs to the
Birnaviridae family and consisted of two serotypes, designated as serotypes 1 and serotype 2 (Carballeda et al., 2011).
The etiologic agent, IBD virus (IBDV), is a naked icosahedral virus having segmented double stranded RNA genome belonging to the genus Avibirnavirus, family
Birnaviridae [1].
The 4 exceptions comprise 2 families that have no known human-infective viruses (Arteriviridae and
Birnaviridae) and 2 with species that have been reported in humans but only at level 2 (Asfarviridae and Bornaviridae).
The causative agent, IPNV, is a bi-segmented double-stranded RNA virus belonging to the family
Birnaviridae. Control methods currently rely on the implementation of control policies and hygiene practices in salmonid husbandry, through the avoidance of the introduction in fertilized eggs originating from IPNV-carrier brood stock, and the use of a protected water supply.
The etiologic agent of IBD is a double stranded RNA virus belonging to the family
Birnaviridae (Jordan, 1990).
The virus is a member of the family
Birnaviridae and the genus Avibirnavirus.
La enfermedad de Gumboro (IBD por sus siglas en ingles Infectious BursalDisease) es causada por un virus de la familia
Birnaviridae, genero Avibirnavirus el cual posee dos serotipos (1 y 2); los miembros de esta familia poseen un genoma que consiste en dos segmentos de una doble cadena de RNA (2, 80, 81).
Causative agent of IBD belongs to family
Birnaviridae and genus Avibirnavirus [5, 6].
Infectious Bursal Disease Virus (IBDV) belongs to the family of
Birnaviridae, which consists of naked viruses characterized by a bi-segmented, double strand RNA genome and is the causative agent of a highly infectious disease affecting young chickens (Gumbro disease) (1).
