Emerging natural recombinant Marek's disease virus between vaccine and virulence strains and their pathogenicity
10 Mar 2022
Abstract excerpt
Marek's disease virus (MDV), an oncogenic virus belonging to the subfamily Alphaherpesvirinae, causes Marek's disease (MD). Vaccines can control MD but cannot block the viral infection; they are considered imperfect vaccines, which carry the risk of recombination. In this study, six natural recombinant MDV strains were isolated from infected chickens in commercial flocks in China. We sequenced and analysed the...
