Experimentally infected commercial broilers with classical and variant IBV and vaccine IBV strains in presence or absence of AIV-H9N2N2 infection were monitored for clinical outcomes, virus shedding, postmortem and histopathological lesions. Histopathologically, trachea in all mixed infection groups including the AIV-H9N2 with vaccine IBV strain showed severe changes comparable to the milder changes in single classical or variant IBV challenged groups (Purcell et al., 1976) . Similarly, in this study, significant increases of AIV-H9N2 virus shedding with classical IBV infection especially at 2 and 5 DPI and with the variant and vaccine IBV strains co-infections up to 7 DPI were observed. ./cache/cord-303794-fn3jkiil.txt ./txt/cord-303794-fn3jkiil.txt
