Reoviruses have been isolated from tissues and organs of poultry with arthritis,
tenosynovitis, stunting syndrome, respiratory and enteric disease, immunosuppression and malabsorption syndrome. Birds are
eliminated at breeding or condemned during processing. To our knowledge prevalence
of reoviruses in broiler chickens in Khuzestan, Iran
remains unknown. We assess prevalence in 415 samples from 20 flocks during
winter and 413 from 21 flocks during summer by ELISA. The results of this study
showed seroprevalence
to be 69% of which 66% occurred in winter and 74% in summer (P < 0.05).
Keywords: Broilers, Reovirus, Seroprevalence, Ahvaz, Iran.
