Newcastle Disease in Free-Living and Pet Birds

TLDR
All of the approximately 8,000 species of birds seem to be susceptible to infection with Newcastle disease viruses (NDVs), so efforts are needed to protect birds from these viruses.
Abstract
Newcastle disease (ND) has economic and ecologic impact on pet and free-living as well as on domestic birds. Virtually all of the approximately 8,000 species of birds seem to be susceptible to infection with Newcastle disease viruses (NDVs).

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

Third genome size category of avian paramyxovirus serotype 1 (Newcastle disease virus) and evolutionary implications

TL;DR: The goal of the study was to establish if there was a relationship between molecular patterns and virus evolution, and the complete genome sequence of two distinct apathogenic Newcastle disease virus (NDV) strains was determined and a third genome size category, containing 15,198 nucleotides, was recognized.
Journal ArticleDOI

Newcastle disease: Evolution of genotypes and the related diagnostic challenges

TL;DR: The molecular epidemiology and recent diagnostic problems related to viral evolution of NDV are reviewed and it is explained why a new system, based on objective criteria, is needed to categorize genotypes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Newcastle disease virus: current status and our understanding

TL;DR: The NDV based recombinant vaccine offers a pertinent choice for the construction of live attenuated vaccine due to its modular nature of transcription, minimum recombination frequency, and lack of DNA phase during replication.
Journal ArticleDOI

Immune responses of poultry to Newcastle disease virus.

TL;DR: Newcastle disease (ND) remains a constant threat to poultry producers worldwide, in spite of the availability and global employment of ND vaccinations since the 1950s, and protection against NDV is through the use of vaccines generated with low virulent NDV strains.

Circulation of influenza viruses and paramyxoviruses in waterfowl originating from two different areas of North America.

TL;DR: Comparisons of two marshalling areas for different migratory flyways of waterfowl in North America over a 6-8-year period indicate that ducks in different areas represent a continual source of orthomyxoviruses and paramyxovirus of potential disease significance to other species.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antigenic variation of Newcastle disease virus strains detected by monoclonal antibodies.

TL;DR: Forty Newcastle disease virus strains and isolates could be placed in eight distinct antigenic groups on their ability to induce binding of nine mouse monoclonal antibodies to infected MDBK cells as assessed by an indirect immuno-peroxidase test.

Ortho- and paramyxoviruses from migrating feral ducks: characterization of a new group of influenza A viruses.

TL;DR: The results suggest that ecological studies on influenza in avian species should include attempts to isolate virus from faeces, and it is proposed that the neuraminidase on this group of influenza viruses be designated Nav6.

and Type-A Influenza Viruses From Migratory Waterfowl in the Atlantic Flyway

TL;DR: Cloacal and tracheal swabbings were obtained from several species of migratory waterfowl that had been shot by hunters in Delaware and Maryland, and 15 isolations were made of viruses that would agglutinate chicken red blood cells.

Isolation of Newcastle disease and type-A influenza viruses from migratory waterfowl in the Atlantic flyway.

TL;DR: Cloacal and tracheal swabbings were obtained from several species of migratory waterfowl that had been shot by hunters in Delaware and Maryland, and 15 isolations were made of viruses that would agglutinate chicken red blood cells as discussed by the authors.
