Abstract excerpt
The early pathogenesis of Marek's disease virus (MDV) infection is characterized by a lytic infection followed by the induction of latency. Genetically resistant N2a and susceptible P2a chickens were infected with the less virulent JM-16 or the very virulent plus (vv+) RK-1 MDV strains to examine the relationship between virulence and resistance on virus replication during 1-10 days postinfection (dpi) using...
