  • Title: Colibacillosis of turkeys exacerbated by hemorrhagic enteritis virus. Laboratory studies.
    Author: Larsen CT, Domermuth CH, Sponenberg DP, Gross WB.
    Journal: Avian Dis; 1985; 29(3):729-32. PubMed ID: 3907613.
    Abstract:
    Lesions typical of colibacillosis disease were reproduced in laboratory experiments. Mortality resulting from experimentally produced colibacillosis was significantly increased when Escherichia coli O1:K1 was presented to poults that had been orally inoculated with hemorrhagic enteritis virus (HEV) 1 week earlier. These and previous data suggest that HEV infection can exacerbate colibacillosis of older poults. HEV infection apparently damages the poults' defense system enough to account for the observed increase in susceptibility to E. coli.
