Genetic Resistance of Fowl to MH2 Reticuloendothelioma Virus

L. N. Payne and P. M. Biggs

Houghton Poultry Research Station, Houghton, Huntingdon

Comparison of the properties of MH2 reticuloendothelioma virus with known subgroup A, B and C strains of Rous sarcoma virus indicated that it belongs to subgroup C of avian tumour viruses.

The Reaseheath R line of chickens was highly resistant to MH2 virus, and tests on crosses between this line and the susceptible Reaseheath W line were consistent with the hypothesis that a single autosomal recessive gene controls resistance to MH2 virus.

Received 29 October 1969; accepted 22 January 1970.
