A recombinant avian infectious bronchitis virus expressing a heterologous spike gene belonging to the 4/91 serotype.
We have shown previously that replacement of the spike (S) gene of the apathogenic IBV strain Beau-R with that from the pathogenic strain of the same serotype, M41, resulted in an apathogenic virus, BeauR-M41(S), that conferred protection against challenge with M41. We have constructed a recombinant...
