Beak and Feather Disease Virus Variant-Dependent Antibody Reactivity in Naturally Infected Psittacine Birds

2026-01-15

Abstract excerpt

Beak and feather disease virus (BFDV, species Circovirus parrot) is the causative agent of psittacine beak and feather disease (PBFD), characterised primary by death of nestlings, feather loss and presumed immunosuppression in parrots worldwide. BFDV shows marked genetic heterogeneity, particularly in the open reading frame 2 (ORF2) encoding the capsid protein (Cap), but the impact of this diversity on antibody re...
