Fig. 1.

Amplification product of VP2 gene from IBDV. L, DNA marker; Lanes 3 to 8, positive samples; PC, positive control; NC, negative control.

Fig. 2.

Phylogenetic tree based on the VP2 gene sequences of IBDV. IBDV detected in present study have been represented with black circles.

Fig. 3.

VP2 protein based analysis showing amino acid pattern of IBDV. The amino acid alanine at the position 222 and other amino acids I242, I256, I294 and S299 is characteristic for vvIBDV.
