13 Feb 2025
Abstract excerpt
Reticuloendotheliosis virus (REV) is an oncogenic retrovirus that affects both commercial and free-ranging birds. To date, only two complete REV genome sequences have been identified in chickens from South America, with no records in other avian species. This study reports the first complete genome of REV detected in a mallard duck (Anas platyrhynchos domesticus) in South America. In 2021, a mallard duck in...
