Isolation of very virulent Marek's disease viruses from vaccinated chickens in Australia.

Australian veterinary journal - 1 Jun 1990

McKimm-Breschkin J L, Faragher J T, Withell J, Forsyth W M

Abstract excerpt

Very virulent Marek's disease viruses (vvMDV), defined as isolates against which the herpesvirus of turkey (HVT) vaccine provide poor protection, have been isolated from poultry flocks in both the United States and Europe. Twenty-one samples from vaccinated Australian flocks, experiencing problems with excessive Marek's disease (MD), were tested for the presence of transmissible MD viruses (MDV). Of the 16...
