Infection of chickens with PhCoV isolates I0623/17 and I0710/17 and of pheasants with I0710/17. Virus recovery from oropharyngeal (I) and cloacal (II) swabs from chickens inoculated with PhCoV isolates I0623/17 and I0710/17, and pheasants with PhCoV isolate I0710/17 (A). Virus recovery was performed by inoculating 9-day-old embryonated, specific pathogen-free eggs through the allantoic route with supernatant from the swabs. Replication of our isolates I0623/17 and I0710/17 in the trachea, lung, proventriculus, cecal tonsil, and kidney of chickens at 5 dpi, and replication of I0710/17 in the trachea, lung, proventriculus, cecal tonsil, and kidney of pheasants at 5 dpi (B). Viral titration was performed by inoculating 9-day-old embryonated, specific pathogen-free eggs through the allantoic route. Data are expressed as the mean ± standard deviation. Virus titers were analyzed by Student’s t-test using GraphPad Prism for Windows version 5. Differences were considered significant if the p value was <0.05 (*p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001). Detection of the IBV antigen by IHC analysis in the kidney (I) and trachea (II) of pheasants at 5 dpi following PhCoV I0710/17 infection and in the trachea (III) of chickens at 5 dpi following PhCoV I0623/17 infection (C).
