A cell line tentatively designated as MDCC-BO1(T), was established from spleen cells of an apparently healthy chicken inoculated with herpesvirus of turkey (HVT). BO1(T) cells were T lymphoblastoid cells and the more than 95% of them had Marek's disease (MD) tumor-associated surface antigen (MATSA). However, no viral internal antigens or membrane antigens could be demonstrated in them by immunofluorescence tests using chicken anti-HVT and -MD virus (MDV) sera. The virus could be rescued from BO1(T) cells by co-cultivation with chick embryo fibroblasts (CEF). The DNA of the rescued virus was characterized as HVT DNA by its sedimentation profile in a neutral glycerol gradient and its endonuclease Hind III cleavage-pattern. Ultrastructural studies on CEF infected with the rescued virus revealed the presence of HVT-like virions. However, DNA-DNA reassociation kinetics showed that the BO1(T) cells contained a few copies of NVT and also MDV genomes.
