Insertion/deletion mutations within tva receptor gene confer chicken resistance to infection by avian leukosis virus subgroups A and K

The classic subgroup A (ALV-A) and newly emerging subgroup K (ALV-K) of avian leukosis virus are two major pathogens responsible for avian leukemia in chickens, posing substantial threats to global poultry industry. Both viruses share a Tva protein encoded by the tva gene as a receptor to gain the e...
