auxotrophic mutant derived from strain USDB 0224, ATCC MYA-617
Non-permissive incubation temperature is 39.5 C. This mutant was assigned to Dales EM category P indicating that it produces immature normal particles and mature particles with cores that are predominantly lucent at the center. It is also assigned the Condit map location U6. This subtype is distinguishable from the parent IHD-J strain by its ability to elicit polykaryocytosis in all mammalian and avian cells tested and by its inability to induce an active hemagglutinin at the plasma membrane.
