Selection for Improved Water Efficiency in Broiler Breeder Lines Does Not Negatively Impact Immune Response Capabilities to Gram<sup>−</sup> and Gram<sup>+</sup> Bacterial Components and a Killed-<i>Salmonella</i> Enteritidis Vaccine
Selection for water consumption could impact broiler breeders’ immune capabilities. To assess these impacts of selection based on the water conversion ratio (WCR), three trials were conducted using broiler breeders from the modern random bred (MRB), low (L)WCR, and high (H)WCR lines. Ten- to 11-week...
