Evidence for specificity of psittacine beak and feather disease viruses among avian hosts.

Virology - 1 Feb 2003

Ritchie Peter A, Anderson Ian L, Lambert David M

Abstract excerpt

Beak and feather disease is a major avian disease of both captive and wild parrot and cockatoo populations. Clinical signs include beak elongation and abnormal growth, together with weight loss and in some individuals the disease is fatal. We investigated the relationship between viral genotypes and their hosts in order to test for a positive association between distinct viral genomes and avian species....
