Abstract
This chapter first presents a broad outline of the basic elements of the avian immune system. It then addresses the role of genetics in regulating immune-mediated resistance to disease. Modern molecular genetics has provided an arsenal of new tools for identifying disease resistance genes. The chapter presents basic genetic concepts, molecular genetic approaches to identify disease resistance genes, complementary functional genomic approaches,...
