Avian leukosis virus (ALV) is associated with immune suppression, neoplasia, and reduced performance in chickens. In this study, two strains of ALV were isolated from Luxi gamecocks by DF-1 cell culture and identified by PCR, immunofluorescence assay, and sequencing of the viral genome. These strains were found to be novel recombinant viruses with nucleotide sequence identity of over 93.0% in the LTR and 94.4% in U3 to ALV-J, over 95.0% in the 5'UTR to ALV-C, over 93.4% in gp85 to ALV-B, and over 96.0% in gp37 to ALV-E. These results indicate that these two isolates are recombinants between ALV-J, ALV-C, ALV-E and ALV-B.
禽白血病病毒(ALV)与鸡的免疫抑制、肿瘤形成和生产性能下降有关。本研究通过 DF-1 细胞培养从鲁西斗鸡中分离到两株 ALV,并通过 PCR、免疫荧光检测和病毒基因组测序进行鉴定。这两种毒株被鉴定为新型重组病毒,其 LTR 区核苷酸序列同源性超过 93.0%,与 ALV-J 同源;U3 区核苷酸序列同源性超过 94.4%,与 ALV-J 同源;5'UTR 区核苷酸序列同源性超过 95.0%,与 ALV-C 同源;gp85 区核苷酸序列同源性超过 93.4%,与 ALV-B 同源;gp37 区核苷酸序列同源性超过 96.0%,与 ALV-E 同源。这些结果表明,这两种分离株是 ALV-J、ALV-C、ALV-E 和 ALV-B 之间的重组病毒。
