Article Synopsis
- Newcastle disease (ND) is a highly contagious viral infection in poultry that significantly impacts the poultry industry, especially in developing countries.
- A recent investigation of a 24-week-old layer-type poultry flock revealed over 50% mortality due to a virulent strain of Newcastle disease virus (NDV) genotype XVII, showing characteristic clinical signs and severe pathological findings.
- This study provides the first detailed account of ND pathology from a natural outbreak involving NDV genotype XVII, highlighting symptoms such as lethargy and diarrhoea, along with lesions including haemorrhagic oophoritis and enteritis.
