Anatomopathological and molecular studies of Marek´s disease virus in India
In India, increasing incidence of Marek’s Disease Virus (MDV) outbreaks are being reported even in vaccinated poultry farms. Hence identifying the new emerging pathotype of MDV is necessary for successful control through vaccination.

Statistical properties of thermodynamically predicted RNA secondary structures in viral genomes
By performing a comprehensive study on 1832 segments of 1212 complete genomes of viruses, we show that in viral genomes the hairpin structures of thermodynamically predicted RNA secondary structures are more abundant than expected under a simple random ...

Mixed infection by fowlpox virus and Chlamydophila psittaci in a commercial laying hen flock [PDF]
An outbreak of fowlpox occurred in a commercial laying hen flock in one of the western provinces of Poland. Clinical signs suggested fowlpox and the diagnosis was confirmed by histopathological detection of Bollinger bodies within the epithelial cells ...

Generation, Mutagenesis, and Removal of Mini-F Sequences [PDF]
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 ...

A phylogenomic analysis of Marek's disease virus reveals independent paths to virulence in Eurasia and North America [PDF]
Virulence determines the impact a pathogen has on the fitness of its host, yet current understanding of the evolutionary origins and causes of virulence of many pathogens is surprisingly incomplete. Here, we explore the evolution of Marek's disease virus

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.
