Summary
Four isolates of infectious bronchitis viruses (IBV) from chickens with nephritis, were characterized by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and restriction enzyme fragment length polymorphism (RFLP), and were found to be genetically different from the other twelve strains which we previously studied.
