Salmonella enterica serovar gallinarum (S. gallinarum) is the causative agent of fowl typhoid, a severe systemic disease which affects mainly chickens and turkeys, however other birds species can be affected, especially partridges, which are a prestigious species in Morocco. The mortality rate on farms is high, and the use of antibiotics is not effective against this disease. Vaccinating partridges against fowl typhoid is therefore an absolute priority if this breed is to be preserved in Morocco. However, the effectiveness of vaccines against fowl typhoid in this species has not been extensively studied. Due to its negative impact on partridge farms in Morocco, a study was carried out to assess the benefits of managing the fowl typhoid in partridges via vaccination with a 9R vaccine produced locally: AVIVAX SG-9R.
