Abstract

When chicks with maternal antibodies against infectious tenosynovitis (viral arthritis) virus were inoculated orally at 1 day old with tenosynovitis virus, they were protected against developing active tenosynovitis lesions 3 weeks later. They were not protected against subcutaneous inoculation, however. Breeder vaccination against tenosynovitis resulted in immunity of the progeny against oral infection at 1 day old, whereas progeny from unvaccinated breeders were susceptible to such a challenge.
