A study of the distribution of T and B cells in peripheral blood, bursa of Fabricius, thymus, spleen and caecal tonsils of 1-day-old or 5-week-old turkeys indicated that the bursa-specific antigen and immunoglobulin surface determinants could be used as markers for bursa-derived cells. Thymus-specific antigen could be used as a marker for thymus-derived cells.
