Polymorphisms of the chicken Mx gene promoter and association with chicken embryos’ susceptibility to virulent Newcastle disease virus challenge

Newcastle disease is a devastating viral disease of chicken in low- and middle-income countries where the backyard production system is predominant. Marker-assisted selection of chickens that are resistant to Newcastle disease virus (NDV) is the promising strategy that needs to be explored. The aim...
