avian leukosis viruses (alvs) cause different types of tumours in poultry and can affect the health and egg production of the birds. to investigate the presence of the virus in chicken layer flocks in shiraz, 222 egg albumen from local layer breeder (25 eggs), local layer grand parent (30 eggs), broiler breeder (60 eggs), commercial layer (46 eggs) and broiler grand parent (61 eggs) were tested...

Mycoplasmas are important  avian  pathogens,  which  can  cause  both  respiratory  disease  and  synovitis  in  poultry  that  result  in  considerable  economic  losses  to  the  poultry  industry  all  over  the  world.  The  aim  of  this  study  was  to  determine  the  prevalence  of  Mycoplasma  gallisepticum  and  Mycoplasma  synoviae  infections  among  commercial  poultry  flocks  in ...

Avian influenza is an important disease of poultry with the potential to cause major epidemics resulting in significant economic losses. The presence of avian influenza viruses (AIV) in chickens in Iran has not been previously reported. An avian influenza outbreak in broiler, layer and breeder farms occurred during a very hot summer in July 1998. Three AIV isolates designated as 101, 102 and 10...

background: blood sucking mites are important avian ectoparasites which being found on bird species worldwide. their presence are problematic for the producers either through potential direct effects on weight gain, egg produc­tion, sperm production in roosters or as nuisance pests on worker handle hens and eggs. the aim of this study was pointing out of the status of haematophagus mites. metho...

A major current problem in public health is the issue of antimicrobial resistance Escherichia coli humans and poultry. In Indonesia, multidrug-resistant E. are specific concern since such may cause problems humans.

Using annual serologic surveillance data from all poultry farms in the Netherlands during 2007-2013, we quantified the risk for the introduction of low pathogenicity avian influenza virus (LPAIV) in different types of poultry production farms and putative spatial-environmental risk factors: distance from poultry farms to clay soil, waterways, and wild waterfowl areas. Outdoor-layer, turkey (mea...

During the past few decades there has been a steady increase in global production of poultry meat and eggs. Although the high nutritive value of eggs and poultry meat has resulted in increasing demand, food quality and safety factors are becoming increasingly significant in determining market value of poultry products. Poultry production is one of the fastest growing sectors of Iranian agricult...
