Enterotoxemia In A Cow Due To Clostridium Perfringens Type A, Hakan Kalender, Ayşe Kiliç, Eray Atil
Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences
Enterotoxemia was diagnosed in a 3-year-old cow that died suddenly. Lesions of hemorrhagic enteritis were seen in the small intestine during necropsy. Lethal alpha toxin of Clostridium perfringens was detected in the intestinal contents by toxin neutralization test. C. perfringens type A was isolated from the intestinal contents and typed by multiplex PCR. Enterotoxemia should be considered as a cause of sudden death in cattle in Turkey.

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences
Despite vaccinations against very virulent (vv) strains of infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) or Gumboro, Gumboro outbreaks in vaccinated hens in Turkey are still reported. These outbreaks suggested that new vv strains might have emerged and the present vaccines might not be able to provide protection against infections with these strains. The objective of this study was to characterize the viruses isolated from vaccinated layer hens. For this purpose, the hypervariable region of the VP2 gene of the viruses was amplified by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and the amplification products were sequenced. These results showed that the field isolates …

Evaluation Of Two Vaccination Schemes Using Live Vaccines Against Newcastle Disease In Chickens, Mansur-Ud-Din Ahmad, Mamoona Chaudhry, Muhammad Farooq Rai, Hamad Bin Rashid
Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences
The use of different types of Newcastle disease (ND) vaccine in different vaccination schemes has decreased the incidence of velogenic Newcastle disease (VND) in commercial poultry worldwide. In under-developed countries like Pakistan, these vaccination schemes are not successful due to free-range and backyard poultry production. This trial was conducted in 90 experimental chickens to develop an effective control against ND. The level of antibody response, detected by haemagglutination-inhibition (HI) test, and the degree of protection against the virulent strain of Newcastle disease virus (NDV) were studied. The chickens were immunized with commercially available ND vaccines. In scheme A, primary vaccination …

Environmental And Genetic Effects On Birth Weight And Survival Rate In Holstein Calves, Serdar Koçak, Mustafa Tekerli̇, Ceyhan Özbeyaz, Banu Yüceer
Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences
This study was undertaken to investigate the effects of certain factors on birth weight and survival rate, utilizing the records of 8399 Holstein calves maintained at the Ceylanpınar State Farm in southeastern Anatolia. The data were collected from the calf barn sheets, including birth weight, pedigree details, and calf fate. The survival rate was scored as 1 (alive) or 0 (died) in accordance with the records. Analysis of variance indicated that the effects of year, season, parity, and calf sex on birth weight were significant (P < 0.01). Only calf sex had a significant (P < 0.01) influence on survival rate. The least squares means of birth weight for all calves averaged 38.79 ± 0.171 kg. The survival rates were 0.95 ± 0.004, 0.94 ± 0.004, and 0.92 ± 0.005 at 3, 6, and 12 months of life, respectively. Heritabilities were 0.115 ± 0.0023 for birth weight and 0.020 ± 0.009, 0.011 ± 0.008, and 0.011 ± 0.008 for 3-month, 6-month, and 12-month survival rates. Genetic correlations between birth weight and every rate of survival were estimated as -0.113, -0.012, and 0.106. The corresponding phenotypic correlations were 0.022, 0.014, and -0.013. It was concluded that the birth weight and survival rates of Holstein calves reared at Ceylanpınar State Farm were acceptable. However, further improvements can be accomplished by more effective feeding and management based on the low heritabilities.
