The titre of the recovered virus is 104.6/mL. Immune electron micro-scopic observation of the virus particles revealed that the particles were rotund with a diameter of about 30 nm. Besides, virus titre quantification obtained by qRT-PCR showed a correlation between time from infection and virus titre. All these results showed that we have recovered RHDV from RK13 cells by re-verse genetics technology successfully, and this would be very useful in studies of the antigenicity, virulence, pathogenesis, maturation and new type vaccines of RHDV.展开更多
