Abstract
Infectious laryngotracheitis (ILT) is a very serious respiratory disease of poultry all over the world. For the last decade, many countries have reported the ILT disease. However, there is no report about ILT disease in broiler breeders in Turkey. In this study, we investigated ILT in broiler breeders on a poultry farm in Turkey. For this purpose, five samples were investigated from twenty-eight week old broiler breeders on a poultry farm, which consists of 5 flocks with 34.500 broiler breeders. The presence of ILT virus was determined by PCR targeting ICP4 gene (infected-cell polypeptide 4) and characterized by sequencing. This is the first report of the ILT in broiler breeders in Turkey
