Genomic characterization of parvovirus and beak and feather disease virus in cockatiel (Nymphicus hollandicus). [PDF]

Microbiol Resour Announc
ABSTRACT 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, each exhibiting the characteristic genomic structures ...

A high prevalence of beak and feather disease virus in non-psittacine Australian birds [PDF]

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2017
Beak and feather disease virus (BFDV) is a circovirus and the cause of psittacine beak and feather disease (PBFD). This disease is characterized by feather and beak deformities and is a recognized threat to endangered Psittaciformes (parrots and cockatoos). The role that non-psittacine birds may play as reservoirs of infection is unclear.

Beak and feather disease virus: biology and resultant disease [PDF]

WikiJournal of Science, 2020
The beak and feather disease virus (BFDV) causes psittacine beak and feather disease, an often chronic and fatal disease in psittacine birds. The virus most commonly infects psittacine birds, but is also capable of infecting non-psittacine bird species in Australasia.

Evidence of Unique Genotypes of Beak and Feather Disease Virus in Southern Africa [PDF]

Journal of Virology, 2004
ABSTRACT Psittacine beak and feather disease (PBFD), caused by Beak and feather disease virus (BFDV), is the most significant infectious disease in psittacines. PBFD is thought to have originated in Australia but is now found worldwide; in Africa, it threatens the survival of the indigenous endangered Cape

Assessment of recombinant beak and feather disease virus capsid protein as a vaccine for psittacine beak and feather disease

Journal of General Virology, 2009
Beak and feather disease virus (BFDV) is a significant pathogen of wild Australasian and African psittacine birds. We assessed the immunogenicity of recombinant BFDV capsid (recBFDVcap) to protect against the development of psittacine beak and feather disease (PBFD).

Temporal Characterization of the Viral Load of Psittacine Beak and Feather Disease Virus in Rosy-Faced Lovebirds (Agapornis roseicollis)

Birds
Psittacine beak and feather disease virus (BFDV) is a widespread and highly pathogenic virus in parrots. The disease typically presents with feather and beak abnormalities, along with possible immune system suppression.
