The Hitchner B1 and Ulster strains of Newcastle disease virus (NDV) replicated to high titre in the Harderian gland (HG) after eye-drop infection. The Harderian gland then became the major site of antiviral IgA-antibody-forming cells (AFC) in the body and their number correlated to the level of antiviral IgA antibody in the tears. The spleen, HG and femoral bone marrow all contained comparable levels of antiviral...
