Journal ArticleDOI
A review of avian influenza in different bird species
TL;DR: Only type A influenza viruses are known to cause natural infections in birds, but viruses of all 15 haemagglutinin and all nine neuraminidase influenza A subtypes in the majority of possible combinations have been isolated from avian species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Newcastle disease and other avian paramyxoviruses.
TL;DR: Newcastle disease (ND), caused by avian paramyxovirus serotype 1 (APMV-1) viruses, is included in List A of the Office International des Epizooties as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Avian influenza: recent developments.
Ilaria Capua,Dennis J. Alexander +1 more
TL;DR: The human health implications have now gained importance, both for illness and fatalities that have occurred following natural infection with avian viruses, and for the potential of generating a reassortant virus that could give rise to the next human influenza pandemic.
Journal ArticleDOI
A molecular epidemiological study of avian paramyxovirus type 1 (Newcastle disease virus) isolates by phylogenetic analysis of a partial nucleotide sequence of the fusion protein gene.
TL;DR: It is concluded that by using this dataset it will be possible to type future virus isolates rapidly on the basis of their nucleotide sequence and make inferences about theirorigins.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Sequence analysis of all eight genes of the LPAI virus and the HPAI viruses showed minor differences between the viruses except at the hemagglutinin (HA) cleavage site, which indicates a virulence shift.
