Molecular characterization of fowl adenoviruses isolated from chickens with gizzard erosions
13 Apr 2011
Abstract excerpt
Broiler chickens with clinical signs of uneven growth, depression, and dull feathers were submitted to our laboratory and, at necropsy, lesions in proventriculus, gizzard, and intestines were detected. Fowl adenovirus serotype 1 (FAdV-1) was isolated from digestive tissues.
