Genome Sequence of a Beak and Feather Disease Virus from an Unusual Novel Host, Australian Boobook Owl (Ninox boobook) [PDF]
The beak and feather disease virus (BFDV) is a pathogen of psittacine birds. BFDVs infecting nonpsittacine birds remain largely uncharacterized. We report the genome of a BFDV from a boobook owl (Ninox boobook), a nonpsittacine bird. The genome consisted

Beak and feather disease virus: biology and resultant disease [PDF]
The beak and feather disease virus (BFDV) causes psittacine beak and feather disease, an often chronic and fatal disease in psittacine birds. The virus most commonly infects psittacine birds, but is also capable of infecting non-psittacine bird species ...

Emerging diseases are acknowledged as a growing threat to wildlife, with the continued identification of pathogenic and potentially pathogenic viruses in avian species resulting from ongoing advances in molecular diagnostic techniques. Parvoviruses under the genus Chaphamaparvovirus (subfamily Hamaparvovirinae) are highly divergent.

Metagenomic Detection of Multiple Viruses in Monk Parakeet (Myiopsitta monachus) in Australia. [PDF]
Summary Three viruses from the families Circoviridae, Parvoviridae and Adenoviridae were detected in this study using a non‐invasive, high‐throughput sequencing method. Though their pathogenic consequences are unknown, these viruses may pose a risk of spreading infection within the pet trade.

Abstract Birds can act as successful long‐distance vectors and reservoirs for numerous zoonotic bacterial, parasitic and viral pathogens, which can be a concern given the interconnectedness of animal, human and environmental health. Examples of such avian pathogens are members of the genus Chlamydia. Presently, there is a lack of research investigating

Abstract Beak and feather disease virus (BFDV) infects domestic and wild psittacine species and is able to cause progressive beak, claw and feather malformation and necrosis. In addition to having an impact on the health and welfare of domesticated birds, BFDV represents a significant threat to wild endangered species.
