  • Title: Ornithobacterium rhinotracheale infection in commercial laying-type chickens.
    Author: Sprenger SJ, Halvorson DA, Nagaraja KV, Spasojevic R, Dutton RS, Shaw DP.
    Journal: Avian Dis; 2000; 44(3):725-9. PubMed ID: 11007028.
    Abstract:
    Ornithobacterium rhinotracheale is a gram-negative, rod-shaped, pleomorphic bacterium that has been isolated from flocks of turkeys and broilers from around the world. Infections cause respiratory disease, mortality, and growth suppression, or clinical signs of infection may be absent. In layers, there have been few reports of disease caused by O. rhinotracheale. This is the first report of O. rhinotracheale infection in United States layer flocks.
