Mapping QTL affecting resistance to Marek's disease in an F6 advanced intercross population of commercial layer chickens
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Marek's disease (MD) is a T-cell lymphoma of chickens caused by the Marek's disease virus (MDV), an oncogenic avian herpesvirus. MD is a major cause of economic loss to the poultry industry and the most serious and persiste...
