Enteric Viruses Detected by Molecular Methods in Commercial Chicken and Turkey Flocks in the United States Between 2005 and 2006

TL;DR: It is reinforced that enteric viruses are widespread in poultry throughout the United States, although the clinical importance of most of these viruses remains unclear.
Journal ArticleDOI

The diversity of the orthoreoviruses: molecular taxonomy and phylogentic divides.

TL;DR: This review mainly focuses on the molecular taxonomy of the fusogenic orthoreoviruses, and aims to provide insight into their relationships with the non-fusogenic Orthoreovirus genera and other selected Reoviridae genera.
Journal ArticleDOI

Periodic monitoring of commercial turkeys for enteric viruses indicates continuous presence of astrovirus and rotavirus on the farms

TL;DR: Comparison of infected birds with one group of turkeys that were negative for enteric viruses by the methods used here suggests that astrovirus and/or rotavirus may affect production, and the full impact on flock performance needs to be further determined.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Multiplex RT-PCR Test for the Differential Identification of Turkey Astrovirus Type 1, Turkey Astrovirus Type 2, Chicken Astrovirus, Avian Nephritis Virus, and Avian Rotavirus

TL;DR: The development of a multiplex reverse transcriptase–polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay specific for astroviruses and avian rotavirus in turkey-origin and chicken-origin samples is detailed.
