    • Abstract


    This study aimed to detect the presence of avian poxvirus in ducks raised in Hung Yen and Ninh Binh provinces. Some ducks showing nodular hyperplasia lesions on the beak and around the eyes were discovered in three flocks of ducks raised in the Van Lam district, Hung Yen, and Gia Vien district, Ninh Binh during May - June 2023. Diagnosis using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method showed that 3 pooled samples taken from suspected infected ducks representing flocks at each collection farm were positive for the viral genome of poxvirus. The results of partial sequencing of the gene encoding core protein 4b showed that the nucleotide similarity between the 3 poxvirus strains in this study ranged from 99.60-100%. The results of phylogenetic tree analysis also revealed that the virus strains in this study belonged to the A5 subgroup and showed a close genetic relationship with the APV_D2 virus strain (GenBank code MT877437) reported in India in 2021 and strain APV_XL (GenBank code KJ192189) recorded in China in 2014.
