ABSTRACT
The paper presents data on the comparative analysis of nucleotide sequences of a S3 gene fragment of 67 chicken reovirus (CRV) isolates from the abnormal biopsy specimens tested in 1999 to 2007. These CRV isolates were ascertained to differ from vaccine strains in the nucleotide sequence of the S3 gene. The approximate substitution rates for the S3 gene were established to range from 2.0 x 10(-3) to 6.0 x 10(-3) nucleotide substitutions per year.
