Safety and Efficacy Evaluation of Recombinant Marek’s Disease Virus with REV-LTR
Recently, chickens vaccinated with the CVI988/Rispens vaccine showed increased tumor incidence. Moreover, many strains of Marek’s disease virus (MDV) that were naturally integrated with the long terminal repeat (LTR) of the avian reticuloendotheliosis ...
