Comparative study of virulence of B. anthracis strains harbouring pXO1 and pXO2 plasmids in mice and guinea pigs showed that among six B. anthracis strains, three were 100-1000 times less virulent for guinea pigs. Genetic construction of B. anthracis strains using transduction and conjugation transfer of resident plasmids permitted us to rule out the effects of modified pXO1 and pXO2 replicons and to prove the existence of nonidentified chromosome locuses responsible for the development of an infectious process in anthrax, along with plasmid determinants of virulence.

The conditions necessary for fusion from inside (FFWI) of the BHK-21 cell culture affected by the Lassa and Mopeya arenaviruses were studied. The fusion was shown to occur only in the slightly acid medium and at lower pH meanings for the Mopeya virus, than for the Lassa virus.

There are no simple, direct methods to reliably distinguish oncogenic serotype 1 Marek's disease viruses (MDVs) from their attenuated variants. The present study was an attempt to apply polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to develop a rapid and sensitive assay for the presence of the MDV genome. PCR oligos were chosen to flank the 132-base-pair tandem direct repeats in the serotype 1 MDV genome. The PCR reaction was specific for serotype 1 MDVs, amplifying fragments corresponding to one to three copies of the tandem repeats present in Md11/8, JM/102W, and GA viruses. A high-molecular-weight DNA smear was observed when the DNA from an attenuated Md11/100 was PCR-amplified. Use of the PCR technique allowed the detection of two copies of the 132-base-pair repeat in the DNA extracted from MDV-induced lymphomas removed from two chickens. No DNA was amplified from the DNA extracted from lymphomas induced by either an avian leukosis virus (RAV-1) or reticuloendotheliosis virus (chick syncytial virus).
