Low-Pathogenic Avian Influenza Viruses in Wild House Mice
BACKGROUND Avian influenza viruses are known to productively infect a number of mammal species, several of which are commonly found on or near poultry and gamebird farms. While control of rodent species is often used to limit avian influenza virus transmission within and among outbreak sites, few studies have investigated the potential role of these species in outbreak dynamics. METHODOLOGY/P...
متن کاملEpidemiology of low pathogenic avian influenza viruses in wild birds.
Although extensive data are available on low pathogenic avian influenza (LPAI) virus surveillance in wild birds in North America and Europe, data are scarce for other parts of the world, and our understanding of LPAI virus ecology in the natural reservoir is still far from complete. The outbreak of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) of the H5N1 subtype in the eastern hemisphere has put an...
متن کاملReassortant low-pathogenic avian influenza H5N2 viruses in African wild birds.
To investigate the presence and persistence of avian influenza virus in African birds, we monitored avian influenza in wild and domestic birds in two different regions in Nigeria. We found low-pathogenic avian influenza (LPAI) H5N2 viruses in three spur-winged geese (Plectropterus gambensis) in the Hadejia-Nguru wetlands. Phylogenetic analyses revealed that all of the genes, except the non-stru...
متن کاملIs low pathogenic avian influenza virus virulent for wild waterbirds?
Although low pathogenic avian influenza virus (LPAIV) is traditionally considered to have adapted to its wild waterbird host to become avirulent, recent studies have suggested that LPAIV infection might after all have clinical effects. Therefore, I reviewed the literature on LPAIV infections in wild waterbirds. The virulence of LPAIV was assessed in 17 studies on experimental infections and nin...
متن کاملModelling the impact of co-circulating low pathogenic avian influenza viruses on epidemics of highly pathogenic avian influenza in poultry.
It is well known that highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) viruses emerge through mutation of precursor low pathogenic avian influenza (LPAI) viruses in domestic poultry populations. The potential for immunological cross-protection between these pathogenic variants is recognised but the epidemiological impact during co-circulation is not well understood. Here we use mathematical models to i...
