Abstract excerpt
A previously described cold adapted (ca) attenuated virus, K/25, derived from parent strain A/Krasnodar/101/59 (H2N2), was further modified by 35 additional passages in chick embryos at suboptimal temperature. The virus obtained had retained a distinct ts and ca phenotype and some other markers of attenuation but differed from formerly isolated ca variants by its higher genetic stability connected with an...
