Oxidative Stress in Poultry: Lessons from the Viral Infections
Reactive species (RS), generally known as reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS), are produced during regular metabolism in the host and are required for many cellular processes such as cytokine transcription, immunomodulation, ion transport, and apoptosis.

Viral Bacterial Artificial Chromosomes: Generation, Mutagenesis, and Removal of Mini‐F Sequences
Maintenance and manipulation of large DNA and RNA virus genomes had presented an obstacle for virological research. BAC vectors provided a solution to both problems as they can harbor large DNA sequences and can efficiently be modified using well‐established mutagenesis techniques in Escherichia coli.

Background Infectious laryngotracheitis virus (ILTV; gallid herpesvirus 1) infection causes high mortality and huge economic losses in the poultry industry. To protect chickens against ILTV infection, chicken-embryo origin (CEO) and tissue-culture origin

Histopathological and genetic characterisation of Marek's disease in Sebright chickens from Brazil
Abstract Marek's disease is a lymphoproliferative condition caused by Gallid alphaherpesvirus 2 (Marek's disease virus), affecting primarily birds of the order Galliformes. This study reports a case of Marek's disease in Sebright chickens in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Herpesviruses are ubiquitous viruses which infect a wide range of hosts. Novel herpesviruses are being increasingly detected in free‐ranging bird populations and there are growing concerns for cross‐species infection and spillover events. Herein, multiple sporadic outbreaks of mortality caused by a herpesvirus are described in domestic geese in ...

This study was designed to investigate the influence of Gallid herpesvirus 2 Marek's Disease challenge virus and different inoculated routes of attenuated vaccine virus CVI988/Rispens on immun e adhesion of erythrocytes in chickens. One day old chicks were randomly divided into a control group (C), an experimental group challenged with Jing-1 challenge

Visceral Marek's disease in white-peafowl (Pavo cristatus)
Marek's disease (MD) is a lymphoproliferative disorder caused by Gallid herpesvirus 2 (MDV) that infects mainly domestic gallinaceous birds although wild birds may occasionally be affected.

The identification of specific genetic changes associated with differences in the pathogenicity of Marek's disease virus strains (GaHV-2) has been a formidable task due to the large number of mutations in mixed-genotype populations within DNA preparations.

Marek's disease (MD) is controlled through mass vaccination. Although these vaccines reduce or delay tumor formation they fail to induce sterilizing immunity and prevent virus shedding. Relatively little is known about the genetic changes that lead to attenuation.
