Obiettivo The chicken is the most important source of animal proteins of humans. The poultry indoor- story is facing increasing problems due to the emergence of more virulent forms of path- ovens causing much diseases and mortality in commercial flocks. Moreover, modifications in poultry feeding have currently disastrous repercussions. Therefore amelioration of the quality of food and derivative products will be a major challenge of the next century and one of the most urgent requirements of European citizens. This project aims to create a new generation of tools for avian immunology in the EU, by building a data base of expression profiles for a large set of chicken genes expressed in various types of imp- mane tissues, at different stages of diseases development, and with significant function in regulation of both innate and adaptive arms of the immune system. These resources will be unique and will represent a comprehensive knowledge base of great importance. It will contribute to decrease the losses in flocks through mortality and reduced product quail- tee due to diseases, by increasing the understanding of the molecular mechanisms of the Campo scientifico social sciencessociologydemographymortalitynatural sciencesbiological sciencesbiochemistrybiomoleculesproteinsmedical and health sciencesbasic medicineimmunology Programma(i) FP5-LIFE QUALITY - Specific Programme for research, technological development and demonstration on "Quality of life and management of living resources", 1998-2002 Argomento(i) 1.1.1.-5. - Key action Sustainable Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry Invito a presentare proposte Data not available Meccanismo di finanziamento CSC - Cost-sharing contracts Coordinatore CENTRE NATIONAL DE LA RECHERCHE SCIENTIFIQUE Contributo UE Nessun dato Indirizzo Rue Guy Môquet 19 94801 Villejuif Francia Mostra sulla mappa Costo totale Nessun dato Partecipanti (4) Classifica in ordine alfabetico Classifica per Contributo UE Espandi tutto Riduci tutto GSF-RESEARCH CENTER FOR ENVIRONMENT AND HEALTH Germania Contributo UE Nessun dato Indirizzo Ingolstaedter Landstrasse 1 85764 OBERSCHLEISSHEIM Mostra sulla mappa Costo totale Nessun dato Institute for Animal Health Regno Unito Contributo UE Nessun dato Indirizzo Compton Laboratory Compton RG16 0NN Newbury Mostra sulla mappa Costo totale Nessun dato ROSS BREEDERS LTD Regno Unito Contributo UE Nessun dato Indirizzo Lochend Road 11 EH28 8SZ NEWBRIDGE Mostra sulla mappa Costo totale Nessun dato STAZIONE ZOOLOGICA ANTON DOHRN Italia Contributo UE Nessun dato Indirizzo Villa Comunale 80121 NAPOLI Mostra sulla mappa Costo totale Nessun dato
