Human Metapneumovirus

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2013
ABSTRACT Human metapneumovirus (HMPV), a paramyxovirus identified in 2001, is a leading cause of respiratory tract infections in both children and adults. Seroprevalence studies demonstrate that the primary infection occurs before the age of 5 years, and humans are reinfected throughout life. The four subgroups of HMPV occur with year-to-year

Avian metapneumovirus: A five-plex digital droplet RT-PCR method for identification of subgroups A, B, C, and D

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2022
End-point and real-time avian metapneumovirus (AMPV) RT-PCRs have been developed to detect one or two of the four recognized subgroups (A,B,C, and D) simultaneously or for broad range AMPV detection.
