| influenza a virus, avian | Strains of influenza a virus causing influenza in birds. Transmission is caused by close contact or is waterborne in aquatic species. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| encephalomyelitis virus, avian | A species of enterovirus infecting primarily young chicks, but also found in turkeys, pheasants, and guinea fowl. It causes a fatal neuronal degeneration and is transmitted by mechanical contact. (12 Dec 1998) |
| erythroblastosis virus, avian | A species of avian type c retroviruses (retroviruses type c, avian) causing progressive anaemia and weakness in domestic and wild fowl. (12 Dec 1998) |
| leukosis virus, avian | The type species of avian type c retroviruses (retroviruses type c, avian) producing latent or manifest lymphoid leukosis in fowl. (12 Dec 1998) |
| abelson leukaemia virus | A defective murine leukaemia virus capable of transforming lymphoid cells and producing a rapidly progressing lymphoid leukaemia after superinfection with friend, moloney, or rauscher virus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Abelson murine leukaemia virus | A retrovirus belonging to the Type C retrovirus group subfamily (family Oncovirinae) which is associated with leukaemia and produces in vitro transformation of mouse cells. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bovine leukaemia virus | A type C retrovirus in the subfamily Retrovirinae, commonly infecting cattle, especially dairy cows; in a small proportion of infected cattle, it will cause enzootic bovine leukosis. Synonym: bovine leukosis virus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radiation leukaemia virus | A murine leukaemia virus isolated from radiation-induced lymphomas in c57bl mice. It is leukemogenic, thymotrophic, can be transmitted vertically, and replicates only in vivo. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Maloney leukaemia virus | A retrovirus associated with leukaemia in rodents. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Rauscher leukaemia virus | An RNA retrovirus associated with leukaemia in rodents; similar to Friend virus. Synonym: Rauscher's virus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Gross' leukaemia virus | A strain of mouse leukaemia virus. Synonym: Gross' leukaemia virus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| moloney leukaemia virus | A murine virus arising during the propagation of s37 mouse sarcoma, and causing lymphoid leukaemia in mice. It also infects rats and newborn hamsters and is apparently transmitted vertically to embryos in utero and through mother's milk. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Moloney murine leukaemia virus | <molecular biology, virology> Replication competent retrovirus (Oncovirinae) that causes leukaemia in mice, isolated by Moloney from cell free extracts made from a transplantable mouse sarcoma. (18 Nov 1997) |
| murine leukaemia virus | <virology> A group of type C retroviruses infecting mice and causing in some strains lymphatic leukaemia after a long latent period. Nearly all are replication competemt and v onc minus. See: Abelson leukaemia virus. (18 Nov 1997) |
| human T-cell leukaemia virus | <virology> One of a group of retroviruses which causes the disease T-cell leukaemia in humans. T-cell leukaemia is a type of the cancer leukaemia where the body uncontrollably produces large amounts of abnormal (nonworking) T lymphocytes. (09 Oct 1997) |
