Characterization of Infectious Laryngotracheitis Virus Isolates: Demonstration of Viral Subpopulations within Vaccine Preparations
1 Jul 2001
Abstract excerpt
Infectious laryngotracheitis (ILT) is a severe acute respiratory disease of chickens caused by ILT virus. To better understand the epidemiology of the disease, a polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) assay of the glycoprotein E gene has been developed and utilized to characterize vaccine strains and outbreak-related isolates. Enzymes EaeI and DdeI were used to...
