Characterization of two strains of fowl adenovirus type 1.
An adenovirus isolated from the trachea of a chicken with respiratory disease was compared with an isolate obtained from the trachea of a clinically normal chicken. The isolates caused similar respiratory disease experimentally but differed in plaque morphology and fluorescent-antibody reactions in infected chick embryos.
