chickens host diverse picornaviruses originated from potential interspecies transmission with recombination. | while chickens are an important reservoir for emerging pathogens such as avian influenza viruses, little is known about the diversity of picornaviruses in poultry. we discovered a previously unknown diversity of picornaviruses in chickens in hong kong. picornaviruses were detected in 87 cloacal and 7 tracheal samples from 93 of 900 chickens by reverse transcription-pcr, with their partial 3d(pol) gene sequences forming five distinct clades (i to v) among known picornaviruses. analysis of eight g ... | 2014 | 24906980 |
a proposed new strain of avian picornavirus in broiler chicken from brazil. | a new strain of avian picornavirus was identified in fecal samples from broiler chickens in a commercial farm in the municipality of benevides, pará, brazil. genomic analysis showed it to have a nucleotide identity of 78.4% with the family picornaviridae, genus avisivirus, and species avisivirus a, suggesting that this is a possible new strain within this species. | 2018 | 29567730 |
