The susceptibility to infectious RSV(RAV-O) of pure-bred and incross-bred chick embryos from the inbred Reaseheath C and I lines was studied, and a genetic hypothesis is proposed to explain the observed segregation of susceptible and resistant embryos. The results suggest (1) the presence of a dominant autosomal gene for susceptibility to RSV(RAV-O), designated es, in the 1 line, and of its recessive allele, es, in the C line, and (2) the presence in the 1 line of an unlinked dominant, autosomal epistatic gene Ie, which inhibits the expression of es, and of its recessive allele, ie, in the C line. The two loci are designated ‘tumour virus e (tve)’ and ‘inhibitore (Ie)’.
