Comparative Analysis of 14 Avian Reovirus Strains Across Genotypes I-V

A comparative analysis of 14 avian reovirus strains from genotypes I to V, evaluating viral biological characteristics and pathogenicity indicators. The dataset was authored by Fanrun Meng and last updated on 2026-05-08. It includes phylogenetic, structural, recombination, and in vivo analysis results, pointing to distinct pathogenic profiles among genotypes.

Use Cases

• Compare viral replication and lethality across genotypes based on in vitro and chicken embryo assays.
• Analyze genotype-specific tissue tropism and lesion patterns based on in vivo pathogenicity data.
• Study phylogenetic relationships and recombination events among circulating strains based on σC gene sequences.
• Investigate genotype-specific immune responses based on pro-inflammatory cytokine and gene expression data.

Strengths

• Includes data on 14 distinct avian reovirus strains.
• Covers a comparative analysis across five genotypes (I-V).
• Contains results from multiple analysis types: phylogenetic, structural, recombination, and in vivo.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Data may reflect geographic bias inherent to the study's focus on strains from China.
