| genetic characterization of chicken anemia virus from commercial broiler chickens in alabama. | chicken anemia virus (cav) isolates show extremely limited genetic variability worldwide. we determined the nucleotide sequence of an 823-nucleotide portion of the 2.3-kb cav genome found in 10 liver and/or spleen specimens of alabama 29-to-49-day-old commercial broiler chickens exhibiting lymphocyte depletion of the thymus submitted to the state diagnostic laboratory because of problems unrelated to anemia. we determined the nucleotide sequence directly from dna isolated from tissues, without i ... | 2001 | 11417817 |
| pigeon paramyxovirus: association with common avian pathogens in chickens and serologic survey in wild birds. | pigeon paramyxovirus-1 (ppmv-1) was isolated from pigeons from east-central alabama and used in association with chicken anemia virus (cav), infectious bursal disease virus (ibdv), or finch mycoplasma gallisepticum (mg) in specific-pathogen-free chickens to assess dinical disease and pathology. ppmv-1 infection in all groups was conducted at day 10 of age via the ocular route. the low passage ppmv-1 isolate was inoculated into chickens in different groups at 10 days post-cav infection, 6 days po ... | 2005 | 15839419 |
