Unter Berucksichtigung dieses offenbar den zellassoziierten Herpesviren der Gruppe B eigenen Ubertragungsweges ist eine grosere Virusproduktion bei gleichzeitiger kurzerer Kultivierungszeit moglich. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 \u0000b) Interferon: Wahrend drei Puten-Herpesvirusstamme sowie drei apathogene Huhner-Herpesvirusstamme in vitro kein nachweisbares Interferon induzierten, waren drei geprufte pathogene MKV-Stamme in der Lage, sowohl in Huhnerembryofibroblasten- als auch in Huhnerkukennierenzellkulturen die Bildung groser Mengen Interferon zu induzieren. Auf Grund der fehlenden Interferoninduktion durch die drei Puten- und die drei apathogenen Huhner-Herpesvirusstamme kann als sicher gelten, das der Interferonmechanismus nicht fur die Schutzwirkung dieser Stamme gegen das Entstehen der MK in Frage kommt. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 \u0000c) Interferenz: Es konnten experimentelle Beweise fur das Vorkommen der homologen Interferenz in vitro erbracht werden. Durch Endpunktpassagen mit einem zeitlichen Abstand von 24 Stunden zwischen Infektion und Passage der Kulturen konnte die Bildung inkompletter interferierender Viruspartikel weitgehend vermieden werden. Inaktiviertes Herpesvirus vermag ebenfalls mit infektiosem Virus zu interferieren. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Die Infektion von Huhnerkukennierenzellkulturen mit Puten-Herpesvirus und die nachfolgende Infektion mit pathogenem Marekvirus vermochte die Vermehrung des MKV nachhaltig zu hemmen. Dieses in vitro beobachtete, als heterologe Interferenz bezeichnete Ereignis tritt Literaturberichten zufolge auch in vivo auf und wird als eines der Wirkungsprinzipien der Schutzimpfung von Eintagskuken gegen die MK angesehen. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Summary \u0000 \u0000Multiplication, interference and interferon induction of avian herpesviruses.
