Pathogenesis of aquatic bird bornavirus 1 in turkeys of different age [PDF]
Aquatic bird bornavirus 1 (ABBV1), an orthobornavirus in the family Bornaviridae, displays a broad host range among avian species, including poultry. The pathogenesis of orthobornaviruses, at least in mammals and psittacines, appears to be mediated by ...

Avian Bornaviruses in Psittacine Birds from Europe and Australia with Proventricular Dilatation Disease [PDF]
To determine whether avian bornaviruses (ABVs) were a factor in proventricular dilatation disease (PDD), we used immunohistochemistry, reverse transcription–PCR, and nucleotide sequence analysis to examine paraffin wax–embedded or frozen tissue samples ...

In Vitro and In Ovo Host Restriction of Aquatic Bird Bornavirus 1 in Different Avian Hosts
Aquatic bird bornavirus 1 (ABBV-1) is associated with chronic meningoencephalitis and ganglioneuritis. Although waterfowl species act as the natural host of ABBV-1, the virus has been sporadically isolated from other avian species, showing the potential ...

Avian bornavirus associated with fatal disease in psittacine birds. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Thanks to new technologies which enable rapid and unbiased screening for viral nucleic acids in clinical specimens, an impressive number of previously unknown viruses have recently been discovered. Two research groups independently identified a novel negative-strand RNA virus, now designated avian bornavirus (ABV), in ...

A Method for Processing Whole Blood for Heterologous Packed Red Blood Cell Transfusion for Use in a Green-Winged Macaw (Ara chloropterus). [PDF]
Residual plasma and saline following blood component processing to produce a packed red blood cell unit for transfusion in an anemic green‐winged macaw (Ara cholopterus). ABSTRACT An 11‐year‐old male green‐winged macaw (Ara chloropterus) diagnosed with severe anemia required a packed red blood cell transfusion rather than whole blood based on ...

Complete Genome Sequence of an Avian Bornavirus Isolated from a Healthy Canadian Goose (Branta canadensis). [PDF]
ABSTRACT A recent survey among wild birds demonstrated the presence of a unique genotype of avian bornavirus (ABV) in wild geese and swans in North America. Here, we report the first complete genome sequence of an avian bornavirus of the goose genotype.
