PREVALENCE OF TUMOURS AMONG POULTRY FLOCKS IN EGYPT [PDF]
Tumours were found to be responsible for deaths at rates of 11%, 5%, 1.2%, and 3% in native breed chicks, layers, broilers, and broiler breeders respectively. Sera and egg-albumen were monitored for presence of P-27 common antigen of avian leukosis virus

B cells do not play a role in vaccine-mediated immunity against Marek’s disease
Background: Marek’s disease virus (MDV), a highly oncogenic α-herpesvirus, is the etiological agent of Marek’s disease (MD) in chickens. The antiviral activity of vaccine-induced immunity against MD reduces the level of early cytolytic infection ...
