dc.description.abstractNow-a-days, Chicken Infectious Anaemia (CIA) gained worldwide importance as it is an emerging viral disease of poultry industry. Mostly it is a disease of chicken but earlier study showed that it can affect all ages of birds. Investigation on sero-prevalence of Chicken Anaemia Virus (CAV) has been performed in India. The study regarding sero-prevalence of CAV was found very less and therefore study was carried out in the states where maximum poultry population exists. A sum of 422 serum samples was collected from Haryana, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Tamilnadu and Telangana. The samples were also categorized according to different age groups and then ELISA was performed to know the antibody titre against CAV. Overall sero-prevalence in India was found to be 39.33%. Results also showed significant effects (p<0.05) of age on occurrence of CIA that means the disease is dependent on the age of birds. The study indicates that disease is highly prevalent in birds aging between 30 to 50 weeks. The infection was found to be less in the birds aging up to 10 weeks. Out of six different states of India highest prevalence of CAV was observed in Telangana state while lower prevalence was observed in Maharashtra.
