Abstract
The leukocytes of chickens immunized with live Rous-associated viruses (RAV), RAV-1 or RAY-6, responded in an in vitro leukocyte blastogenic transformation assay when stimulated with either the homologous or heterologous viruses as antigens. This phenomenon appeared related to a cellular response to a common or cross-reacting cell surface antigen induced by several virus subgroups of the avian leukosis-sarcoma complex and seemed to correlate well with other recent in vivo and in vitro studies.Keywords
