Abstract
A sero-prevalence study of Infectious Bronchitis Virus (IBV) among some species of poultry (village chickens, broilers, layers, turkeys, ducks and geese) in Maiduguri Metropolis was conducted using Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. An overall prevalence of 26.6% was observed in the study. The species distribution of the positive samples showed 5/18 (27.8%) broilers, 9/48 (18.8%) village chicken, 12/40 (30%) turkeys, 4/29 (13.8%) ducks, 6/23 (26.1%) geese and 14/30 (46.7%) layers were sero-positive for IBV antibodies. The sex distribution of the IBV positive samples revealed significant difference (p<0.05) between male and females. The sero-prevalence of IBV based on management system showed a significant difference (p<0.05) among those birds managed under intensive system (39.5%), semi-intensive (23.9%) and free range (18.7%) system. In conclusion, there is prevalence of IBV in the study area and the virus has a wide spread distribution amongst poultry species within the study area.
