Abstract: | A recent study suggests that artificial Ascardia galli infection has no effect on performance and egg quality of free-range laying hens from the point of lay until 40 weeks of age (Sharma et al., 2017). However, the lower hepatic lipid reserve of infected hens observed in the same study indicated the potential for A. galli to affect production at a later stage. In this study, serum and yolk antibody levels of A. galli were measured to investigate the immune response to natural infection in hens with different infection levels. | Publication Type: | Conference Publication | Conference Details: | APSS 2018: 29th Annual Australian Poultry Science Symposium, Sydney, Australia, 4th - 7th February, 2018 | Source of Publication: | Proceedings of the Australian Poultry Science Symposium, v.29, p. 225-225 | Publisher: | University of Sydney | Place of Publication: | Sydney, Australia | ISSN: | 1034-6260 1034-3466 |
