Abstract
The present research work was carried out to know the incidence of MD in different native and cross-bred strains maintained at Poultry Research Station, AAU, Anand. The study comprised of epidemiological information in relation to mortality due to MD with respect to strain, age, sex, season and month wise susceptibility, gross and histopathological examination of different organs, detection of Marek’s Disease Virus (MDV) by PCR, genetic characterization of the field virus by sequencing the BamHI-H fragment of MDV genome and genotyping of MHC-B haplotypes associated with susceptibility or resistance of Marek’s disease.
