Abstract

Newcastle disease (ND), caused by virulent strains of Newcastle disease virus (NDV), is a devastating disease of poultry worldwide. The effect of a challenge with Newcastle disease virus on bacterial population in quail is poorly documented, so for this purpose, a total of 100 day-old Japanese quail were purchased and divided into 2 equal groups randomly. Each group was divided into 2 subgroups of 25 quails. The birds in group A challenged with a velogenic chicken isolate of Newcastle disease virus. The birds in group B did not challenge with Newcastle disease virus as the control group. For the determination of lactobacillus counts in the intestine and crop of Japanese quail, at the end of the period, 10 birds of each subgroup (20 birds of each treatment) were chosen randomly. One gram of the crop and ileocecal content were taken and cultured on MRS for determination of lactobacillus counts. The colony-forming units of Escherichia coli in digesta of ileocecal on Mac Conkey agar were investigated. Also, crop and ileocecal content of dead birds were taken and cultured on MRS and Mac Conkey agar. The results of this study showed that challenge with a velogenic chicken isolate of Newcastle disease virus could increase colony-forming units of Escherichia coli in group A compared to the control group. Also, it reduced lactobacillus counts of intestine and crop compared to the control group. So it concluded that velogenic chicken isolate of Newcastle disease virus influences microflora of intestine and crop of Japanese quail.
