Phylogenetic Analysis of 4b Core Protein Gene of Fowlpox Virus Field Isolates and Commercial Vaccines of Indian Origin

Abstract
The highly conserved P4b gene Was ampli- fied from two field isolates (FWPV-W1 and FWPV-W2) and two commercial vaccines (FWPV-G and FWPV-V) of fowlpox virus and was subjected nucleotide sequencing. The nucle- otide sequence (512 nucleotides) showed 100% sequence similarity in BLAST analysis with other FWPV sequences available in GenBank. Phylogenetic analysis of partial P4b gene (495 nucleotides) sequences of both the field isolates and both the commercial vaccines was done using Neighbour-joining method with 1000 bootstrap replications. In the P410 partial gene based phylogenetic tree, both the field isolates and both the commercial vaccines were grouped under sub-clade A1 along with other fowlpox viruses.
