Live attenuated vaccines appear to be the most effective in countries where the disease is prevalent. However, reversion to virulence has been demonstrated in several studies. Therefore, the development of a stable and safe next generation vaccine against the AMPV disease is needed. In the present study, we generated a recombinant Newcastle disease virus (NDV) vectoring the fusion (F) protein and glycoprotein (G) genes of AMPV subtype-C (AMPV-C) as a bivalent vaccine candidate using reverse genetics technology. The recombinant virus, rLS\/AMPV-C F&amp;G, was slightly attenuated <jats:italic>in vivo<\/jats:italic>, yet maintained similar characteristics <jats:italic>in vitro<\/jats:italic> when compared to the parental LaSota virus. Vaccination of turkeys with rLS\/AMPV-C F&amp;G induced both AMPV-C and NDV-specific antibody responses, and provided significant protection against pathogenic AMPV-C challenge and complete protection against velogenic NDV challenge. These results suggest that the rLS\/AMPV-C F&amp;G recombinant virus is a safe and effective bivalent vaccine candidate and that the expression of both F and G proteins of AMPV-C induces a protective response against the AMPV-C disease.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1038\/s41598-017-04267-7","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,6,16]],"date-time":"2017-06-16T07:15:18Z","timestamp":1497597318000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":19,"title":["Engineered Newcastle disease virus expressing the F and G proteins of AMPV-C confers protection against challenges in turkeys"],"prefix":"10.1038","volume":"7","author":[{"given":"Haixia","family":"Hu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jason P.","family":"Roth","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Laszlo","family":"Zsak","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Qingzhong","family":"Yu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,6,22]]},"reference":[{"key":"4267_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"118","DOI":"10.1016\/S1090-0233(00)90486-6","volume":"160","author":"JK Cook","year":"2000","unstructured":"Cook, J.
