Characteristics of three strains of avian adenoviruses isolated in Queensland. I. Biological properties

Three strains of avian adenovirus were isolated and studied in cell cultures, chicken embryos, and chickens. One strain (ADAM-1) was isolated from the bursa of Fabricius of a chicken with Marek's disease, and the others (ADAM-2 and ADAM-3) from one-day-old chicks with respiratory signs. Experim...
