- a Eight plasmids (3ug each) encoding the eight segments of MDV-A or MDV-B were combined with MDCK cells and subjected to electroporation. Virus titer (pfu/ml) of the supernatant was determined at the indicated days after electroporation by plaque assay on MDCK cells.
- b The MDV-B mutant was generated by substitution of MDV-B NS and PB1 plasmids containing silent mutations in their coding regions (NS 461A/G, PB1 561T/C, 924A/G) for their MDV-B counterparts in the eight plasmid MDV-B mix.
