Susceptibility to scrapie and disease phenotype in sheep: cross-<it>PRNP</it> genotype experimental transmissions with natural sources
<p>Abstract</p> <p>It has long been established that the sheep <it>Prnp</it> genotype influences the susceptibility to scrapie, and some studies suggest that it can also determine several aspects of the disease phenotype. Other studies, however, indicate that the source...
