Sequencing of pigeon circovirus and the first report of identification of beak and feather disease virus in clinical specimens of domestic pigeons. [PDF]

open access: yesVet Res Forum
An internationally recognized syndrome that leads to deaths among domestic and ornamental pigeons, particularly after racing, is young pigeon disease syndrome (YPDS). Pigeon circovirus (PiCV) is regarded as one of the potential factors contributing to the occurrence of YPDS.

Mutability dynamics of an emergent single stranded DNA virus in a naïve host.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Quasispecies variants and recombination were studied longitudinally in an emergent outbreak of beak and feather disease virus (BFDV) infection in the orange-bellied parrot (Neophema chrysogaster). Detailed health monitoring and the small population size (

Development of novel diagnostic and vaccine options for beak and feather disease virus (BFDV) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Beak and Feather Disease Virus (BFDV) is a circovirus which causes ill-thrift, feather loss and immunosuppression leading to secondary infections and eventually death in psittacine birds.

Temporal Loss of Genome‐Wide and Immunogenetic Diversity in a Near‐Extinct Parrot

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 9, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Loss of genetic diversity threatens a species' adaptive potential and long‐term resilience. Predicted to be extinct by 2038, the orange‐bellied parrot (Neophema chrysogaster) is a critically endangered migratory bird threatened by numerous viral, bacterial and fungal diseases.

Psittacine beak and feather disease : vaccination, haematological response and pcr methodology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
To enable assessment of recombinant BFDV capsid protein (recBFDVcap) for vaccination to protect against PBFD, commercially available lovebirds (Agapornis sp.) were tested for evidence of past and current BFDV infection using PCR, HI and HA to identify ...
