Abstract
The present invention provides a method for inducing an immunological response in a vertebrate to a pathogen by inoculating the vertebrate with a synthetic recombinant avipox virus modified by the presence, in a non-essential region of the avipox genome, of DNA from any source which encodes for and expresses an antigen of the pathogen. The present invention further provides a synthetic recombinant avipox virus modified by the insertion therein of DNA from any source, and particularly from a non-avipox source, into a non-essential region of the avipox genome.
