Extracutaneous Viral Inclusions in Psittacine Beak and Feather Disease [PDF]

Journal of Veterinary Diagnostic Investigation, 1990
Thirty-five birds that died with naturally acquired psittacine beak and feather disease (PBFD) were necropsied to identify extracutaneous viral inclusions. Inclusions were found in various tissue sections from 34 of 35 birds. By immunoperoxidase staining, intranuclear and intracytoplasmic inclusion bodies were shown to contain PBFD viral antigen ...

Assessment of recombinant beak and feather disease virus capsid protein as a vaccine for psittacine beak and feather disease

Journal of General Virology, 2009
Beak and feather disease virus (BFDV) is a significant pathogen of wild Australasian and African psittacine birds. We assessed the immunogenicity of recombinant BFDV capsid (recBFDVcap) to protect against the development of psittacine beak and feather disease (PBFD).
