Abstract: |
Marek's disease was a major threat to commercial poultry ofNepal during 1998 to 2002, particularly for egg industries. This study was carried out during 200 I to 2003. In first phase Rispen's cell associated (a new and effective) vaccine was identified and recommended for strategic application that gave satisfactory results and Marek's disease incidence reduced to a minimum level. In second phase vaccine and vaccination program at hatchery level was monitored. First vaccination in day old chicks with Rispen's vaccine and second vaccination within seven days with HVT vaccine had showed very satisfactory results. During monitoring, involvement of avian leucosis virus and MDV together was suspected in broiler breeder, which was later confirmed (ALV -J) by Kimron Veterinary Institute Beta Degan, Israel by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test. In third phase again epidemiological survey was carried out to monitor the current MDV events. The results of the survey revealed that where recommended strategy was followed and practiced MD incidence rates were dropped. |
