Abstract excerpt
The emergence of virulent avian influenza viruses in poultry is unpredictable. To gain insight into the mechanism for this event, we sought to identify the molecular changes in virulent mutants that occur during replication in 14-day-old embryonated chicken eggs. After three passages in 14-day-ol...
