Transmission: Infectious bronchitis is a very contagious poultry disease. It is spread by air, feed bags, infected dead birds, infected houses, and rodents. The virus can be egg-transmitted, however, affected embryos usually will not hatch.
Genotype-Definition: Genotype refers to the gene composition of an organism or cell for a given trait. Genotype is inherited through sexual reproduction and differs from phenotype. Phenotype refers to physical characteristics, such as height and color, that are expressed.An organism's genotype determines its phenotype.When the alleles for a given trait are homozygous, the genotype is identical.When the genotype is heterozygous, the alleles are different.henotype refers to physical characteristics, such as height and color, that are expressed. An organism's genotype determines its phenotype. When the alleles for a given trait are homozygous, the genotype is identical. When the genotype is heterozygous, the alleles are different.
The genotype is the specific genetic makeup of an individual, in the form of DNA. and it codes for the phenotype of that individual. Any given gene will usually cause an observable change in an organism, known as the phenotype. However, genotype and phenotype are not always directly correlated.
