Abstract
Clostridium perfringens (CP) is the etiologic agent of necrotic enteritis (NE) in broiler chickens that is responsible for massive economic losses in the poultry industry in response to voluntary reduction and withdrawal of antibiotic growth promoters. Large variations exist in the CP isolates in inducing intestinal NE lesions. However, limited information is available on CP isolate genetics in inducing NE with other predisposing factors. This...
