Summary
Decrease in the susceptibility of embryonic chick neural retina cultures to the multiplication of various viruses was observed with increasing age of the embryo. In contrast the retinal cells supported the multiplication of Sindbis virus irrespective of the age when they were infected with the viral RNA. These results suggest that the restricted multiplication of the viruses observed is due to the modulated inability of the cell to process the adsorbed viruses for subsequent replication.
