Full-length cDNA sequence analysis of 85 avian leukosis virus subgroup J strains isolated from chickens in China during the years 1988–2018: coexistence of 2 extremely different clusters that are highly dependent upon either the host genetic background or the geographic location

During the process of transmission and spread of avian leukosis virus subgroup J (ALV-J) in chickens worldwide, the viral genome is constantly changing. A comprehensive and systematic study of the evolutionary process of ALV-J in China is needed. In this study, we amplified the full-length viral cDN...
