description Colibacillosis is known as a fatal bacterial disease resulting in a high level of commercial loss worldwide. This study amid to elucidate the sequence, genetic characteristics, and phylogeny of the <em>bor</em> gene in <em>Escherichia coli</em> (<em>E. coli</em>) strain c1378 (O78:K80) isolated from avian colibacillosis in Iran and develop a rapid and optimal polymerase chain reaction (PCR) molecular-based technique with specific primers to detect this gene in <em>E. coli</em>. A virulent avian <em>E. coli</em> (i.e., laboratory designation <em>E. coli </em>strain c1378) isolated from a chicken with systemic colibacillosis from a broiler farm in Tehran, Iran, in 2004 was used as a source of the <em>bor </em>gene. After DNA extraction, PCR method was used to amplify the <em>bor</em> gene. A 658 bp fragment of the <em>bor</em> gene was amplified, sequenced, blasted, and phylogenetically studied. The most similar sequences to the <em>bor</em> gene in <em>E.</em> <em>coli</em> strain c1378 were <em>E. coli</em> APEC O78, Enterobacteria phage HK630, and <em>Escherichia coli</em> BW2952, respectively. There was a high similarity between the <em>bor</em> gene in <em>E. coli</em> bacteria with their phage and plasmid. Moreover, a high similarity was observed between the <em>bor</em> and <em>iss</em> genes (approximately 92%) showing that they were homologous genes. In addition, the similarity analysis of different bacterial species, as well as their plasmid and bacteriophage, to the <em>bor</em> gene indicated that the highest similarity to O78:K80 was related to <em>Paracoccidioides brasiliensis</em>, <em>Bacillus thuringiensis</em> CT43 plasmid pBMB0558, and <em>Salmonella enterica</em> subsp. enterica serovar Kentucky strain CVM29188 plasmid, respectively. Altogether, the results of the present study confirmed the presence of the <em>bor</em> gene in the studied isolates and clarified its sequence, phylogenetic relationship, and similarities of <em>E.</em> <em>coli</em> strain c1378 (O78:K80) isolated from avian colibacillosis.
