Evaluation of high-resolution melt curve analysis for rapid differentiation of Campylobacter hepaticus from other species in birds.

Spotty liver disease (SLD) is a bacterial disease of chicken, causing mortalities and reduction in egg production, hence, contributing to economic loss in the poultry industry. The causative agent of SLD has only recently been identified as a novel Campylobacter species, Campylobacter hepaticus. Spe...
