  • Title: Outbreaks of egg drop syndrome due to EDS-76 virus in quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica).
    Author: Das BB, Pradhan HK.
    Journal: Vet Rec; 1992 Sep 19; 131(12):264-5. PubMed ID: 1329304.
    Abstract:
    Two outbreaks of the egg drop syndrome were observed in quail flocks maintained on a farm together with chickens. The decrease in egg production ranged from 10.6 per cent to 50.6 per cent, and the number of soft-shelled eggs increased with the decline in egg production. In both the outbreaks haemagglutination inhibiting antibodies to EDS-76 virus were detected. Fluorescent viral antigen specific to EDS-76 virus was also detected in the lining epithelial and glandular cells of the uterus.
