Infectious bursal disease (IBD) has been the major preoccupation for the poultry industry, especially in the past decade with the emergency of high virulent strains. Mutations in the gene that code the VP2 viral protein of pathogenic strains and the amiss use of attenuate vaccines by few passages have been responsible for the springing of new outbreaks. The purpose of this work was to analyze phylogenetically two different isolates of IBDV in Minas Gerais State by the comparison of the nucleotide sequence of the gene that code VP2 viral capside protein. In order to study the pathogen-host interaction, a subtractive library was constructed from VERO cells infected by IBDV (8 hours post-infection) aiming the identification of differential gene expression during this interaction. For the phylogenic analysis of the isolates, fragments of 251 bp amplified by RT-PCR were cloned and sequenced. The comparison of the sequences revealed that these isolates have 98-100% identity with classical vaccinal IBDV strains indicating that these outbreaks might have been caused by the vaccinal virus. To construct the subtractive library, two cDNA populations were hibridizated: one derived by IBDV infected VERO cells and other by non infected VERO cells. The hibridizated products were amplified for the posterior cloning and evaluation of the differential express products. Understanding of the replication characteristics of the IBDV associated to the study of the virus infection effects in the gene expression of the host cell, shown in this work, will allow the elucidation of the mechanisms involved in the pathogen-host interaction contributing, therefore, for the development of methods more effectives in the control and prevention of the IBDV.
