In experiments on hybrid karakul sheep immunized with E. coli and Salmonella vaccines immune response in hybrids F1, obtained from parents oppositely reacting to these vaccines, has been analyzed. The intensity of immune response in karakul sheep has been shown to be inherited as a dominant characteristic, not linked with sex, and regulated, seemingly, by a relatively small number of Ir genes. The content of EA- and EAC-rosetteforming cells does not depend on the intensity of immune response to any of the antigens.
