Table 1.

Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers for Marek’s disease virus (MDV) strain identification.

Target	Primer Sequence	Product Size (bp)
meq	F: 5′-GGGAAATGACAGGTGAATTGTG-3′	1403/1580 ^a
meq	R: 5′-TAAGGAAAATTTGTTACCCCAG-3′	1403/1580 ^a
132bpr	F: 5′-TGCGATGAAAGTGCTATGGAGG-3′	316–844 ^b
132bpr	R: 5′-GAGAATCCCTATGAGAAAGCGC-3′	316–844 ^b

^a Exact size is strain-dependent, based on inclusion of a 177-bp insertion; ^b Exact size depends on 132-base pair repeat sequence (132bpr) copy number.
