Occurrence of bornaviruses, circoviruses and polyomaviruses in necropsy samples from parrots in Poland (2014–2024) [PDF]
Proventricular dilatation disease (PDD) is a disease of parrots which has been known for many years, but only in 2008 was it confirmed that its cause is avian bornavirus (ABV).

Circovirus infection in Croatian population of Eurasian griffon vultures (Gyps fulvus) [PDF]
Circoviruses cause diseases in a wide range of hosts, including avian species. One of the most studied circoviruses is beak and feather disease virus (BFDV), which has spread worldwide due to global trade of birds and characteristics of the virus that ...

Phylogenetic analysis of beak and feather disease virus across a host ring-species complex. [PDF]
Significance The roles of disease and species hybridization in maintaining biodiversity are of wide interest, yet are rarely studied simultaneously in wild populations. Using genomic analysis of beak and feather disease virus in an avian ring-species complex, Platycercus elegans

Molecular detection and characterization of beak and feather disease virus in psittacine birds in Tehran, Iran. [PDF]
Beak and feather disease virus (BFDV), a member of genus circovirus, is a small, non-enveloped, single stranded DNA virus. Although BFDVs are among the most well studied circoviruses, there is little to no information about BFDVs in Iran. The aim of the present study was to detect and identify BFDV molecules from the birds referred to the avian clinic ...

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. This study reports the genomic identification and characterisation of a novel psittaciform chaphamaparvovirus (PsChPV‐6) and ...

Structural Perspectives of Beak and Feather Disease Virus and Porcine Circovirus Proteins [PDF]
Circoviruses represent a rapidly expanding group of viruses that infect both vertebrate and invertebrate hosts. Members are responsible for diseases of veterinary and economic importance, including postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome in pigs, and beak and feather disease (BFD) in birds.
