title: A geographic locus for respiratory cryptosporidiosis in Georgia broilers.
abstract: No geographic loci are known for cryptosporidiosis in birds. After initial examination of cases of respiratory cryptosporidiosis in Georgia chickens, analyzed data showed that the incidence of infection was lower above the fall line than below it. This difference may be due to geoclimatological factors.
