Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Avian Influenza virus (AIV) and Newcastle disease virus (NDV) are highly contagious immunosuppressive pathogens that cause high mortality rates and economic losses in the global poultry industry. Although vaccination to enhance the host antibody response remains the main control strategy, the genetic basis of this variation is poorly understood. In this study, we used a genome-wide association study...
