<p>This invention provides a recombinant herpesvirus of turkeys comprising a foreign DNA sequence encoding a cytokine inserted into an insertion region which comprises a XhoI site within an EcoR1 #9 fragment of a herpesvirus of turkeys viral genome, and the foreign DNA sequence encoding a cytokine which is capable of being expressed in a host cell infected with the herpesvirus of turkeys. This invention provides a recombinant herpesvirus of turkeys-Marek's disease virus chimera comprising a herpesvirus of turkeys unique long viral genome region and a Marek's disease virus unique short region. Lastly, this invention provides homology vectors for producing a recombinant herpesvirus of turkeys, host cells, and vaccines and methods for immunization.</p> |
