The phylogenetic and recombinational analysis of beak and feather disease virus Taiwan isolates
Archives of Virology, 2016Beak and feather disease virus (BFDV) is an avian circovirus, and it has a single-stranded DNA genome. It causes a fatal disease in parrots called psittacine beak and feather disease (PBFD). After screening of samples collected from Taiwan using PCR, complete genome sequences of isolates from 21 samples from various species of parrot were obtained. The

A novel genotype of beak and feather disease virus in budgerigars (Melopsittacus undulatus)
Virus Genes, 2010Beak and feather disease virus (BFDV) is a causative agent for psittacine beak and feather disease (PBFD), which shows a characteristic feather disorder in psittacine birds. Nineteen budgerigars, which were clinically suspected to have PBFD, were examined by two polymerase chain reactions (PCR), which target each of open reading frames (ORFs) V1 and C1.

Characterization of a new virus from cockatoos with psittacine beak and feather disease
Virology, 1989A novel virus isolated from the feather follicles of cockatoos diagnosed as having psittacine beak and feather disease was characterized by electron microscopy, nucleic acid content, and polypeptide composition. Purified virions displayed an icosahedral symmetry, were nonenveloped, and had a mean diameter of 14 to 16 nm negatively stained.

SummaryPsittacine beak and feather disease (PBFD) is the most common viral disease of wild and captive psittacine birds. Here, we designed the first survey to investigate the existence of subclinical infections and the distribution of the causative agent named beak and feather disease virus (BFDV) inside the population of captive psittacine birds in ...

To determine the prevalence of psittacine beak and feather disease virus (BFDV) infection in native parrots in New Zealand.One hundred and sixty-nine wild native parrots and 143 captive native parrots throughout New Zealand were examined for the presence of BFDV, from June 2003 to January 2005.

Genetic diversity of the Rep gene of beak and feather disease virus in South Africa
Archives of Virology, 2006A study on the genetic variation of Beak and feather disease virus (BFDV) isolates in South Africa was performed by amplifying and sequencing a region within the ORF1 of the genome. Six different BFDV isolates were found in 15 psittacine species from 6 regions within South Africa, representing three unique isolates and three isolates that clustered ...

A Universal Polymerase Chain Reaction for the Detection of Psittacine Beak and Feather Disease Virus
Veterinary Microbiology, 1999A universal PCR assay was designed that consistently detected psittacine beak and feather disease virus (BFDV) in psittacine birds affected with psittacine beak and feather disease (PBFD) from different geographic regions across Australia. Primers within open reading frame 1 (ORF1) of the BFDV genome consistently amplified a 717 bp product from blood ...

Beak and feather disease virus (BFDV) belongs to the family Circoviridae. A rolling-circle replication strategy based on a replication-associated protein (Rep) has been proposed for BFDV. The Rep gene of BFDV was expressed and purified, and it was shown to cleave short oligonucleotides containing the conserved nonanucleotide sequence found in the ...
