Background And Aim: Fowl adenovirus (FAdV) is the etiological agent of inclusion body hepatitis (IBH) and hepatitis-hydropericardium syndrome (HHS) in poultry. It is also detected in chickens with runting and stunting syndrome (RSS). FAdV has been detected worldwide, and genotypes 8a, 8b, and 11 have been identified in chickens with enteric problems in Brazil.

The H9N2 subtype of avian influenza virus (AIV) is widely distributed among poultry and wild birds and is also a threat to humans. During AIV active surveillance in Liaoning province from 2015 to 2016, we identified ten H9N2 strains exhibiting different lethality to chick embryos. Two representative strains, A/chicken/China/LN07/2016 (CKLN/07) and A/chicken/China/LN17/2016 (CKLN/17), with similar genomic background but different chick embryo lethality, were chosen to evaluate the molecular basis for this difference.

The expression of maternal derived antibodies (MDAs) and avian β-defensins (AvBDs) in yolk sac tissue may be age-specific and influenced by breed, thereby immunological window difference in hatchlings. This study investigated the mRNA expression of MDAs and AvBDs in the yolk sac tissues of Beijing You and Hy-Line Gray chickens from the embryonic day (ED)7 to 3 days after hatch (DAH). Hy-Line showed a higher embryo bodyweight and a lower residual yolk weight at ED17 (P < 0.

Egg injection has been used for decades to determine embryonic mortality and developmental effects of chemical exposures in birds. Specific egg injection methods affect how well these studies replicate the process of chemical delivery to the embryo via maternal deposition, yet few data are available to compare exposure-response relationships between egg injection and maternal transfer studies. This information gap creates uncertainty when considering egg injection studies for assessment of potential adverse effects in wild birds.

Bird nests of coastal or inland breeding birds can temporarily flood during high tides or storms. However, respiratory physiological disruption of such water submersion and implications for post-submergence survival are poorly understood. We hypothesized that respiratory physiological disturbances caused by submersion would be rapidly corrected following return to normal gas exchange across the eggshell, thus explaining survival of nest inundation in the field.
