The aims of this study were the isolation of Ornithobacterium rhinotracheale from poultry and serotyping of the isolates and field sera by agar gel precipitation (AGP) test. For the isolation 257 chickens and 214 turkeys were used and for the AGP test 333 chickens and 250 turkeys were used. O. rhinotracheale was isolated from the sinus discharge of 3 broiler breeders at 37, 42 and 46 weeks of age. It was determined that 3 isolates were O. rhinotracheale serotype I having cross reactions with serotype L. Of 333 sera examined 86 were found seropositive in chickens by AGP test. It …
