First seroepidemiological and risk factor survey of avian metapneumovirus circulation in Moroccan broiler farms [PDF]
Avian metapneumovirus (aMPV) is a highly contagious pathogen for broilers. Its epidemiological aspects remain poorly understood in Morocco. Given that, we carried out a pilot seroepidemiological survey from December 2020 to June 2021 to define aMPV ...

Characterization of human metapneumoviruses isolated from patients in North America. [PDF]
Human metapneumovirus (HMPV) was recently identified in The Netherlands and was linked to acute respiratory tract illness. In this study, 11 isolates from 10 patients with respiratory disease from Quebec, Canada, were tested by a reverse-transcriptase ...

Recovery of Avian Metapneumovirus Subgroup C from cDNA: Cross-Recognition of Avian and Human Metapneumovirus Support Proteins [PDF]
ABSTRACT Avian metapneumovirus (AMPV) causes an acute respiratory disease in turkeys and is associated with “swollen head syndrome” in chickens, contributing to significant economic losses for the U.S. poultry industry. With a long-term goal of developing a better vaccine for controlling AMPV in the United States, we established a reverse ...

Abstract Strengthening surveillance systems is a key aspect of outbreak response and was particularly important during the COVID‐19 pandemic. Respiratory pathogens spread rapidly, and laboratory capacity is key to monitoring the spread. Prior to the pandemic, Iran had established a rapid response team and laboratory network to provide identification ...

Pathogenic bacteria associated with outbreaks of respiratory disease in Iranian broiler farms
Phylogenetic relationships among MG, MS and ORT strains based on the partial sequence of the mgc2, vlhA, and 16S rRNA genes, respectively. The trees were generated by the neighbor‐joining method using MEGA X software. The sequences from this study are indicated by the triangle shaped symbol.

Seroprevalence of avian metapneumovirus infection in broiler and broiler breeder chickens in Iran
Avian metapneumovirus causes an acute highly contagious upper respiratory tract infection primarily of turkeys and chickens. The disease can cause significant economic losses in turkey and chicken flocks, particularly when exacerbated by secondary ...

Molecular comparisons of full length metapneumovirus (MPV) genomes, including newly determined French AMPV-C and -D isolates, further supports possible subclassification within the MPV Genus. [PDF]
Four avian metapneumovirus (AMPV) subgroups (A-D) have been reported previously based on genetic and antigenic differences. However, until now full length sequences of the only known isolates of European subgroup C and subgroup D viruses (duck and turkey
