Abstract

Bluetongue virus (BTV) belongs to the genus Orbivirus of family Reoviridae. Twenty seven serotypes of BTV have so far been recognized. The genome of BTV consists of ten double-stranded segmented RNA which can reassort independently during mixed infections. The outer capsid proteins VP2 and VP5, coded by segments 2 and 6, are the major determinants of serotype, and serotype-dependent linkage between these segments has been observed. Natural and in vitro reassortments of segment 2 and 6 of different serotypes of BTV have been reported earlier. Here we report a BTV isolate which is a natural reassortments of segment 2 and 5 of BTV-1 and -2.
