Popis: This summary is a project of the Institute for Community Engaged Scholarship (ICES) at the University of Guelph, with project partners: the Catalyst Centre, SPARK Program at the University of Guelph, and Knowledge Mobilization Unit at York University. This project is part of the Pan-Canadian Research Impact Network. http://csahs.uoguelph.ca/pps/Clear_Research Baby chickens developed greater protection against a very virulent strain of Marek’s disease virus if they were given the herpesvirus of turkey (HVT) vaccine alongside interferon-γ. Interferon-γ enhanced the immune response, decreased the incidence of tumours, lowered viral loads, and lowered rates of viral replication. Project support by Agri-Food and Rural Link, Mobilizing Agri-food and Rural Research Knowledge. A program of the OMAFRA-U of G Partnership. http://www.uoguelph.ca/research/omafra/partnership/KTT_and_IP.shtml
