Identification of a 24 kDa protein expressed by chicken anaemia virus

Chicken infectious anaemia virus infection among broiler chicken flocks in Iran

Chicken infectious anaemia is a viral disease in young chickens which characterized by aplastic anaemia and immunosuppression. Between January 2004 and July 2005, an unusual hemorrhage in subcutaneous and intramuscular tissues of broiler chickens at slaughter houses of Mashhad, Isfahan and Tehran provinces were occurred. Postmortem examination revealed severe hemorrhages in the wings and muscle...

Experimental studies of pathogenecity of Chicken Infectious Anaemia Virus (3 isolates) in Iran

To evaluate pathogenicity of 3 Chicken Anemia Virus isolates-CV1, CV2 and CV3 respectively - the current experiment carried out. After tittering of the viruses, 30 one day old SPF chicks were grouped and intramuscularly inoculated with each isolate in a separate group. Two other groups as positive and control groups were inoculate with a live vaccine virus and normal saline respectively. During...

Chicken Anaemia Virus in Sparrows in Iran

Circoviridae family contains two genuses. Chicken anaemia virus (CAV) is the only member of the genus Gyrovirus, while the genus Circovirus currently comprises porcine circoviruses type 1 and 2 (PCV1, PCV2), psittacine beak and feather disease virus (BFDV), pigeon circovirus (PiCV), canary circovirus (CaCV), goose circovirus (GoCV) and duck circovirus (DuCV) [24]. Members of circoviridae family...

Identification of a genetic determinant of pathogenicity in chicken anaemia virus.

The molecular basis of pathogenicity of the chicken anaemia virus (CAV) needs to be clarified in order to develop a safe, live virus vaccine. In this study, several high- and low-pathogenic infectious DNA clones were obtained from field virus samples after 12 or 38 passages in MDCC-MSB1 cells. The high-pathogenic clones induced a low haematocrit, low weight gain and high mortality. Nucleotide s...
