Molecular Survey of Viral Poultry Diseases with an Indirect Public Health Significance in Central Ethiopia. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • Poultry production is becoming increasingly vital globally and in Ethiopia, offering high-quality protein at low costs, but it also raises concerns about pathogen spread among different flock types.
  • A study conducted in 2021 analyzed samples from 16 Ethiopian farms for key viral pathogens (IBV, aMPV, IBDV, and NDV) and identified low levels of these viruses, indicating possible effectiveness of vaccination programs.
  • The research highlights the need for regular monitoring and improved biosecurity to safeguard poultry health and maintain production quality in light of potential viral threats.

Article Abstract

The importance of poultry production is globally increasing, in Ethiopia as well, where high-quality protein and contained costs make poultry a valuable food resource. However, this entails some problems linked to rural, backyard and intensively reared flock proximity and pathogen circulation. This study is aimed at monitoring the presence of important viral pathogens in poultry (infectious bronchitis virus (IBV), avian metapneumovirus (aMPV), infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) and Newcastle disease virus (NDV)) in Ethiopia. Respiratory and cloacal swabs and bursa of Fabricius and kidney imprints on FTA cards were collected in 2021 from 16 farms and tested for IBV, aMPV, NDV and IBDV. One farm was positive for IBDV, resulting in strains similar to those present in vaccines, belonging to genogroup A1a; two farms were positive for IBV but, due to sensitivity limits, only one sample was sequenced, resulting in a 4/91-like strain (GI-13); a layer farm tested positive for NDV with a Lasota-like vaccine strain. These findings suggest a low presence of these pathogens, probably due to the implementation of vaccination strategies, which is also testified by the detection of vaccine strains. A close diagnostic activity should be implemented on a routine basis in order to monitor pathogen circulation, ameliorate biosecurity measures and protect animal health and production levels.
