Abstract
Antigen proteins of Mycoplasma gallisepticum, genes encoding the antigen protein, recombinant vectors integrated with the gene and hosts transformed with the vector are provided. Diagnostics and vaccine using the antigen protein produced by such hosts are effective for poultry, especially chicken infected with Mycoplasma gallisepticum. Vaccination can maintain poultry free of Mycoplasma gallisepticum infection.
