Psittacine beak and feather disease virus in budgerigars and ring-neck parakeets in South Africa.
Psittacine beak and feather disease (PBFD) is a common disease of the psittacine species and is caused by the psittacine beak and feather disease virus (PBFDV). In this study the occurrence of the disease in ring-neck parakeets and budgerigars in South Africa suffering from feathering problems, using polymerase chain reaction as a diagnostic test was investigated. The genetic variation between ...
متن کاملMolecular detection and characterization of beak and feather disease virus in psittacine birds in Tehran, Iran
Beak and feather disease virus (BFDV), a member of genus circovirus, is a small, non-enveloped, single stranded DNA virus. Although BFDVs are among the most well studied circoviruses, there is little to no information about BFDVs in Iran. The aim of the present study was to detect and identify BFDV molecules from the birds referred to the avian clinic of The Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Tehr...
متن کاملGenetic analysis of beak and feather disease virus isolated from captive psittacine birds in Thailand.
Beak and feather disease virus (BFDV) is a causative agent of psittacine beak and feather disease. Genome sequences of BFDVs isolated from Thailand have not hitherto been reported. The whole genomes of 17 BFDV isolates, obtained from 12 psittacine genera, were amplified and subjected to direct sequencing revealing a length ranging from 1,990 to 2,015 nucleotides. The predicted open reading fram...
متن کاملDetection of Beak and Feather Disease Virus and Avian Polyomavirus Dna in Psittacine Birds in Poland
The first survey on the incidence of beak and feather disease virus (BFDV) and avian polyomavirus (APV) among the captive psittacine birds in Poland was presented in this study. Samples were collected between 2006 and 2009. A total number of 751 symptom–free birds from 31 genera and 59 species were tested for BFDV and APV by means of a PCR assay. BFDV was found in 25.3% and APV in 22.24% of the...
