Although dsRNA from European or American strains reacted well with labelled RNA probes from strains from the same continent there was little or no cross-hybridization between RNA from strains from different continents. %U https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/jgv/10.1099/0022-1317-66-2-351
