evidence of multiple introductions of beak and feather disease virus into the pacific islands of nouvelle-caledonie (new caledonia).	beak and feather disease virus (bfdv) is a circular ssdna virus that causes psittacine beak and feather disease and has almost global presence. here, we report for the first time the presence of in nouvelle-calédonie (new caledonia). one hundred and sixty-eight exotic and 79 endemic birds were sampled in nouvelle-calédonie, 26 were found to be positive for bfdv. we characterized the full genomes of 26 isolates and phylogenetic analysis placed nine of the isolates into the bfdv-j strain, with the ...	2012	22855782
genome sequences of beak and feather disease virus in urban rainbow lorikeets (trichoglossus haematodus).	beak and feather disease viral genomes were recovered from two deceased juvenile urban rainbow lorikeets (trichoglossus haematodus) that lacked tail feathers. these genomes share ~95% pairwise identity with two beak and feather disease virus (bfdv) genomes identified in wild and captive australian t. haematodus birds and ~92% identity to those in wild new caledonian t. haematodus deplanchii birds.	2015	25908126
