Abstract excerpt
Toll-like receptors mediate immune responses via recognition of pathogen-associated molecular patterns. Polymorphisms of toll-like receptors may affect their recognition of pathogen-associated molecular patterns, leading to varied host resistance to pathogenic infections. However, little is known about the polymorphisms of chicken toll-like receptors (ChTLR) among breeds. In this study, we cloned ChTLR2 type 1...
