Shedding and congenital transmission of endogenous avian leukosis viruses were studied in viremic White Leghorn hens exogenously infected with viruses with endogenous long terminal repeats (LTRs) and in four semicongenic lines of hens that naturally express infectious endogenous viruses (EVs). Relatively high titers of infectious virus EV7 (encoded at locus ev7), Rous-associated virus-0 (RAV-0), and recombinant 882/-16 RAV-0 were detected in blood cells and sera from exogenously infected hens, but marked differences were noted in the incidence of congenitally infected progeny. In enzyme immunoassays that detect viral group-specific antigen, little or no p27 was detected in albumens from dams infected with RAV-0. However, hatchmates infected with either EV7 or recombinant 882/-16 RAV-0, which was constructed with an RAV-0 LTR, shed high titers of p27. Similarly, semicongenic hens that expressed RAV-0 (EV2) (encoded at locus ev2) shed little or no p27 into albumens, but hens that harbored ev10, ev11, and ev12 shed high titers of p27. A slower electrophoretic mobility of p27, considered to be characteristic of EVs that are restricted in congenital transmission, was not associated with low levels of shedding or congenital transmission; p27 from other EVs and p27 from an avian leukosis virus field strain, all of which are shed at high levels, had mobilities identical to that of p27 from RAV-0. Although shedding and congenital transmission appear to be controlled by the viral genome, there was no correlation between low efficiency of shedding or congenital transmission and endogenous LTR or p27 sequences.
