Metagenomic Detection of Multiple Viruses in Monk Parakeet (Myiopsitta monachus) in Australia [PDF]
Background Birds are known to harbour many pathogens, including circovirus, herpesviruses, adenoviruses and Chlamydia psittaci. Some of these pose zoonotic risks, while others, such as beak and feather disease virus (BFDV), have a significant impact on ...

Multi-layer networks reveal changes in plant-bird interactions driven by invasive species [PDF]
Biological invasions can strongly disrupt ecosystems, reshaping their structure and functioning. We investigate how two widespread invasive parrots –the rose-ringed parakeet Psittacula krameri and the monk parakeet Myiopsitta monachus- affect plant-bird ...
