Hatcheries’ contamination: the molecular characterization and pathogenicity of Mycoplasma gallisepticum isolates in China

Abstract excerpt

Mycoplasma gallisepticum (M. gallisepticum) is a significant pathogenic microorganism contaminating poultry hatchery environments. During intensive hatching, M. gallisepticum significantly impairs embryonic health and development, ultimately reducing embryonic vitality. Clinically, it is common for affected embryos to exhibit incomplete pipping of eggshell, a condition referred to as pipping failure embryos...
