2 Sept 2015
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The strains of the genotype VIId Newcastle disease virus (NDV) induce more severe tissue damage in lymphoid organs than other virulent strains. The underlying molecular mechanisms are poorly understood. METHODS: Genotype IV NDV Herts/33 and genotype VIId NDV JS5/05 have a distinctive pathological profile in the spleen. These two strains of viruses were selected as parental viruses to generate a panel...
