A High Prevalence of Beak and Feather Disease Virus in Non-Psittacine Australian Birds [PDF]
Beak and feather disease virus (BFDV) is a circovirus and the cause of psittacine beak and feather disease (PBFD). This disease is characterized by feather and beak deformities and is a recognized threat to endangered Psittaciformes (parrots and cockatoos). The role that non-psittacine birds may play as reservoirs of infection is unclear.

A Universal Polymerase Chain Reaction for the Detection of Psittacine Beak and Feather Disease Virus
A universal PCR assay was designed that consistently detected psittacine beak and feather disease virus (BFDV) in psittacine birds affected with psittacine beak and feather disease (PBFD) from different geographic regions across Australia. Primers within open reading frame 1 (ORF1) of the BFDV genome consistently amplified a 717 bp product from blood ...

Beak and feather disease virus (BFDV) and avian polyomavirus (APV) infections cause various health problems in many psittacine species, and may ultimately cause death. The aims of this study were to investigate, for the first time, the presence of BFDV and APV in psittacine birds kept in Turkey by SYBR-Green real-time polymerase chain reaction (SYBR ...

Incidence and Detection of Beak and Feather Disease Virus in Psittacine Birds in the UAE
Beak and feather disease is caused by Circovirus, which affects actively growing beak and feather cells of avian species. The disease affects mainly young birds while older birds may overcome the disease with few lasting effects. Due to lack of treatment, the only way to control the disease is through hygiene and early diagnosis.

Fluctuation of the prevalence of beak and feather disease virus in captive psittacines in Iran
Archives of Virology, 2023Beak and feather disease virus (BFDV) is one of the most life-threatening viral agents infecting parrot species. In this study, we investigated fluctuation in the prevalence of beak and feather disease virus (BFDV) in captive psittacines in Iran. Two series of feather samples from different psittacine species, received between July 2019 and July 2021 ...
