Abstract
We constructed the recombinant infectious laryngotracheitis virus (ILT V), CE strain, containing the LacZ gene of E. coli in the thymidine ki nase gene. The growth property of the recombinant virus was almost the same as parental CE strain in chicken embryo fibroblasts. The recombi nant CE strain of ILTV could be used as a live vaccine vector.
