Not an infection: Endogenous circoviral elements underlie BFDV detections in Old World vultures. [PDF]
Circoviruses (family Circoviridae) are small, single-stranded DNA viruses known to infect a broad range of bird species. The Beak and Feather Disease Virus (BFDV), typically associated with parrots, has occasionally been reported in unrelated avian taxa,

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

A Novel DNA Virus Associated with Feather Inclusions in Psittacine Beak and Feather Disease [PDF]
The nature of feather inclusions was characterized in 32 psittacine birds (30 cockatoos, one peachfaced lovebird ( Agapornis roseicollis), and one red-lored Amazon parrot ( Amazona autumnalis autumnalis)) with naturally-acquired psittacine beak and feather disease.

Production and Characterization of Monoclonal Antibodies to Psittacine Beak and Feather Disease Virus [PDF]
Monoclonal antibodies specific for the virus that causes psittacine beak and feather disease (PBFD) were produced by fusing spleen cells from mice immunized with purified concentrated PBFD virus with mouse myeloma cell line Sp2/0. The resulting hybridomas were tested for reactivity against whole purified virus by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay ...
