Avian Bornavirus in Free-Ranging Psittacine Birds, Brazil
Avian bornavirus (ABV) has been identified as the cause of proventricular dilatation disease in birds, but the virus is also found in healthy birds. Most studies of ABV have focused on captive birds.

Pathogenesis of Avian Bornavirus in Experimentally Infected Cockatiels
Avian bornavirus (ABV) is the presumed causative agent of proventricular dilatation disease (PDD), a major fatal disease in psittacines. However, the influencing factors and pathogenesis of PDD are not known and natural ABV infection exhibits remarkable ...

Vertical Transmission of Avian Bornavirus in Psittacines
To the Editor: Proventricular dilatation disease (PDD) is a fatal disease in psittacines that jeopardizes critical species conservation projects, such as that involving the Spix’s macaw (Cyanopsitta spixii), the world’s most endangered bird species (1).

Homozygous CADPS2 Mutations Cause Neurodegenerative Disease with Lewy Body‐like Pathology in Parrots
Abstract Background Several genetic models that recapitulate neurodegenerative features of Parkinson's disease (PD) exist, which have been largely based on genes discovered in monogenic PD families. However, spontaneous genetic mutations have not been linked to the pathological hallmarks of PD in non‐human vertebrates. Objective To describe the genetic
