In order to show the type and severity of gross and histopathologic lesions induce by vaccinal strain (serotype A1) of Pateurella mulocida, ten four-week-old SPF chickens were inoculated intramuscularly with 75 cfu of ( 0.5 ml of 10-7 dilution) bacterium. All birds died in less than 16 hours. No prominent gross lesions were observed in different organs. In microscopic examination, the most comm...

Inoculation experiments were carried out in pot culture to determine the effects of VA fungi on the growth of Poa bulbosa. In this experiment, four treatments  were  used: 1. Strile soil without  inoculation,  2. Strile soil plus inoculum, 3. Natural soil plus inoculum, and 4. Natural soil without inoculation. Inoculum was prepared from a suspension of mycorrhizal  roots of  Poa  plants (Root c...

Since poultry is a very common source of non-typhoid Salmonella for humans, different interventions aimed at decreasing the prevalence of Salmonella in chickens are understood as an effective measure for decreasing the incidence of human salmonellosis. One such intervention is the use of probiotic or competitive exclusion products. In this study we tested whether microbiota from donor hens of d...

Photosynthesis, primary productivity, N content, and N(2) fixation were determined as a function of applied NH(4) (+) in peas (Pisum sativum L. cv. Alaska) which were inoculated or not inoculated with Rhizobium leguminosarum. Cabon dioxide exchange rate (CER) increased 10-fold, total N content 7-fold, and total dry weight 3-fold in 26-day-old uninoculated plants as applied NH(4) (+) was increas...

In this study, immunohistochemistry was used to clarify the early stages of viral kinetics and cycliccourse of IBDV, IR499, which has been described earlier as a very virulent strain (vvIBDV). Fifteen, 4-week-old SPF chickens were inoculated with 10³ EID50 of vvIBDV, IR499, via oculo/nasal route. Five birdsserved as controls, and inoculated with phosphate buffered saline (PBS). The birds were t...
