Of specific interest is the enteric viral population associated with RSS of which many RNA and DNA viruses have been implicated and co-infections of multiple viruses such as rotavirus, chicken astrovirus (CAstV), avian nephritis virus (ANV), and reoviruses have been detected in birds affected with RSS or with poor performance (Reynolds et al., 1986; Guy, 1998; Kang et al., 2012) . Other enteric pathogens associated with avian malabsorption diseases include reoviruses, parvoviruses, and members of the family Caliciviridae; many of which have also been observed in broiler chickens Smyth et al., 2007; Pantin-Jackwood et al., 2008 , Wolf et al., 2011 . ./cache/cord-345302-wbkfjz8r.txt ./txt/cord-345302-wbkfjz8r.txt
