Mapping QTL associated with resistance to avian oncogenic Marek’s Disease Virus (MDV) reveals major candidate genes and variants

2020-07-22

Abstract excerpt

Marek’s Disease (MD) represents a significant global economic and animal welfare issue. Marek’s Disease Virus (MDV) is a highly contagious oncogenic and highly immune-suppressive alpha-herpes virus, which infects chickens, causing neurological effects and tumour formation. Though partially controlled by vaccination, MD continues to have a profound impact on animal health and on the poultry industry. Genetic select...
