Chickens bred for Typhoid Resistance Show Dramatic Survival Rise
W V Lambert of Iowa State reports at Cornell that six years of selecting for fowl typhoid resistance cut chick mortality from 89.8 percent to 9.4 percent in generation five. In nonresistant flocks deaths stayed high at 85 to 93 percent. Study of 1,568 chicks across four breeds and two lines shows varying baseline losses and suggests resistance is trait-based rather than breed-based. Crosses indicate both sexes transmit resistance and multiple factors likely govern these genes.
