## TL;DR

This paper reports the complete genome sequence of a GI-13 infectious bronchitis virus strain from a chicken in India.

## Contribution

The study provides the first complete genome sequence of a recombinant GI-13 IBV strain from India.

## Key findings

- The virus was identified from a commercial broiler chicken using next-generation sequencing.
- The strain is classified as GI-13, a known pathogenic type of infectious bronchitis virus.

## Abstract

Infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) causes a highly contagious, acute upper respiratory disease in chickens characterized by nasal discharge, coughing, and rales. Here, the complete genome sequence of a recombinant GI-13 IBV strain ck/IN/A2332039-001/24 was sequenced from a choanal sample of a commercial broiler chicken in India using nontargeted next-generation sequencing.
