Novel duck reovirus exhibits pathogenicity to specific pathogen-free chickens by the subcutaneous route

Abstract To study the pathogenicity of new duck reovirus (NDRV) to chickens, eighty 3-day-old SPF chickens were equally divided into two groups. The experimental group was inoculated with a NDRV challenge strain of 100 μL (10–5.00 ELD50/0.1 mL) by the subcutaneous (s.c.) route, and the control group...
