Abstract
Infectious bursal disease (IBD), an economically important infectious viral
disease of poultry is caused by Infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) belonging to
Avibirnavirus genus of Birnaviridae family. The disease causes considerable
morbidity and mortality mainly by immunosuppression. The re-emergence of IBD
in variant or highly virulent form in different parts of the world including India
during the last couple of decades, have demanded further research efforts in
understanding the added complexicity of the disease process and the means to
diagnose and control it. At present, the disease is controlled by the combined use
of live virus and inactivated oil emulsion vaccines.
