Abstract
Novel sequences in the genome of a wild type isolate of chicken infectious anemia virus are described, The amino acid sequence of a polypeptide, VP1, encoded by a novel sequence is also disclosed. Additionally, disclosed are the unexpected properties of the isolate which are related to novel amino acids positioned in the amino acid sequence of this isolate's VP1, as compared to the sequence of VP1 found in cell culture-adapted strains; and use of the novel sequences and their respective polypeptides in strategies to control chicken infectious anemia such as by vaccination.
