Abstract
The etiology of the classical turkey "X" disease syndrome is reappraised based on original reports in conjunction with current information. The clinical signs described in those original reports cannot be totally explained as being typical for aflatoxicosis. The unexplained effects of the disease can be resolved by the proposed presence of the mycotoxin cyclopiazonic acid which is frequently produced byAspergillus flavus along with the aflatoxins.Entities:
