MUCORMYCOSIS Fungal Infections in Broiler Poultry

MUCORMYCOSIS Fungal Infections

Chickens are less susceptible to mucor infection. Pneumonic lesions in the chickens may be caused by Mucor resimosus or M. chorimbifer. Some species of mucor may cause infection in the eyes and vertebrae in chickens. According to one report, infection of mucor, penicillium and aspergillus has been reported to occur through contaminated litter. After removal of contaminated litter the disease declined in 4 days.
