Abstract excerpt
The non-virulent Newcastle disease virus (NDV)-Spotted Dove strain acquires enhanced virulence after serial passage in chicken embryos. In this study, the P gene T25M substitution was identified as the critical determinant of increased pathogenicity after 100 consecutive passages in specific-pathogen-free (SPF) chicken embryos. Initial characterization of the parental Spotted Dove strain confirmed a lentogenic...
