Infectious coryza is a disease of the respiratory tract of chickens and hens caused by the bacterium Avibacterium paragallinarum (AP), which causes increased mortality and a relevant decrease in production for the poultry industry (1). The pathogen, AP, has wide phenotypic variability that has prevented the finding of a single prevention method. AP isolates can be classified according to their serological characteristics into 9 Kume serotypes, and the vaccines developed have a restricted range of action specific to each serotype, with some exceptions. Classification into the 9 serotypes is done through hemagglutination inhibition assays. These tests evaluate the hemagglutination capacity (adhesion of the pathogen to blood cells) of each isolate in the presence of standardized inhibitors. Identification is crucial because the usual prevention method uses inactivated whole cell vaccines whose cross protection between different serovars is limited (4). HI assays can identify serovars in the vast majority of isolates, but molecular characteristics related to serotype diversity have not yet been precisely identified. Non-gene specific molecular techniques have been developed to genetically typify the reference strains of the 9 Kume serotypes (5). In addition, from the report and characterization of two AP hemagglutinins - HagA (6) and HMTp210 (7,8) - typing analyzes directed at these genes (9) have been developed. However, the results of these methods are not consistent with the Kume serovars (10–12). It is proven that HMTp210 has the greatest contribution to the haemagglutinating effect of AP (13) and is the main antigen inhibited by protective antibodies (14), so recent research has focused on this gene (9,11,13,15,16 ). However, the structural differences in the proteins expressed by this gene between the different serovars have not been analyzed. Furthermore, the antibodies used for Kume serotyping correspond to the entire mixture of antigens present in a sonicated extract of AP (2), but other antigens have not been considered in previous attempts at molecular serotyping. Likewise, it is known that the degree of virulence of AP varies 5 significantly between serovars (17), a change whose correlation between the virulence genes of AP has not yet been sought. We propose to analyze the joint genetic variability of the virulence genes as potential antigens that interact in the HI assays and are likely responsible for the variations in virulence between serovars.
