Abstract
Commercial layers were inoculated with F strain Mycoplasma gallisepticum (MG) and housed in either conventional chicken houses or the lower-stress environment of biological isolation units. At the end of 2 weeks, all treatment groups were placed in environmental chambers and subjected to 4 hr of heat stress (40 C with a dew point of 21 C). Rectal temperature, an indicator of response to high heat, was monitored. Rectal temperatures of F strain MG-inoculated hens housed in the conventional chicken house environment were significantly higher than those of uninoculated controls, whereas rectal temperatures of hens held in isolation units were comparable to those of their uninoculated controls.
