Viral titers at 6, 8, 14, and 35 days postinoculations in peripheral blood lymphocytes of 15 × 7 chickens inoculated with rMd5, rMd5/ΔvIL-8, and rMd5/vIL-8-ELR. Five chickens from each experimental group were tested, and titrations were performed in duplicate. The titer is indicated as PFU/106 peripheral blood lymphocytes. Error bars in the figure show the standard deviation of the mean.
