The increasing number of clinical cases of inclusion body hepatitis (IBH) associated with fowl adenoviruses (FAdVs) is a growing concern in different parts of the world, including Canada. After an outbreak of IBH in a 10-d-old pullet broiler breeder flock, we serologically monitored the flock from 8 to 46 wk of age, using the agar gel precipitation test (AGPT) offered by diagnostic laboratories and an FAdV group-specific enzyme-linked immunosorbemt assay (ELISA) developed earlier. In addition, we tested 1-d-old progeny for possible vertical transmission of FAdV when the breeder flock approached the peak of egg production by performing virus isolation and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) procedures on target organs. As in previous studies comparing the 2 tests, ELISA was more sensitive than AGPT. With ELISA, a few birds had weakly positive results at 8 wk of age, and all the birds had strongly positive results from 12 wk of age until the end of the study. This group-specific ELISA is therefore a sensitive and practical way to monitor FAdV antibodies in commercial flocks. None of the 1-d-old chicks tested were positive by PCR, nor was FAdV isolated from the same tissues, indicating an absence of transmission of infectious virus to the progeny. The lack of virus production and transmission could be due to the presence of high antibody titers in the layers. 相似文献

European oysters, Ostrea edulis, L. were kept in plastic mesh cages at three depths at two commercial oyster farm sites within Mali Ston Bay, Croatia, between April 2004 and August 2005. Oysters from each cultivation depth were sampled at both sites at approximately 3‐month intervals for growth parameters, mortality rate control and condition index calculation. The growth parameters of experimental groups from both sites only revealed a considerable distinction for shell length growth (P=0.011). Total weight gain and soft tissue weight gain were the highest for groups cultivated in the middle of the water column as compared with the top and bottom positions for both studied sites. Survival rates were very similar in all experimental groups, situated at different depths of both experimental sites, and differences in the mortality peak during the summer months were not significant. Condition indices fluctuated throughout the trial period and were the highest in spring and summer, with a reduction during the winter months and improvement again in the spring. 相似文献
