Opportunistic sampling from the near‐threatened Alexandrine parakeet uncovers genomes of a novel parvovirus and beak and feather disease virus [PDF]
Birds are known to harbour a wide range of pathogenic viruses, including the beak and feather disease virus (BFDV; species, Circovirus parrot), which poses a significant threat to the conservation of endangered avian species.

Genomic characterization of parvovirus and beak and feather disease virus in cockatiel (Nymphicus hollandicus) [PDF]
This study reveals the genomes of psittaciform chaphamaparvovirus 5 (PsChPV-5) and a beak and feather disease virus (BFDV), discovered in the fecal samples of cockatiels. The genomes of PsChPV-5 and BFDV are 4,366 and 2,009 base pairs long, respectively,

Incidence and Detection of Beak and Feather Disease Virus in Psittacine Birds in the UAE [PDF]
Beak and feather disease is caused by Circovirus, which affects actively growing beak and feather cells of avian species. The disease affects mainly young birds while older birds may overcome the disease with few lasting effects. Due to lack of treatment, the only way to control the disease is through hygiene and early diagnosis.

Characterization of novel cell-penetrating peptides derived from the capsid protein of beak and feather disease virus [PDF]
Highlights • Novel cell-penetrating peptides, CPP1 and CPP2, in the capsid protein of BFDV were identified through bioinformatic analyses.• Dose- and time-dependent uptake of the CPP1 and CPP2 by cells was observed.• Multiple endocytosis pathways and ...
