| phylogenetic and pathogenic analysis of a novel h6n2 avian influenza virus isolated from a green peafowl in a wildlife park. | h6 subtype avian influenza virus, which has been circulating among different species, causes considerable concern for both veterinary medicine and public health. we isolated a strain of h6n2 avian influenza virus from healthy green peafowl (pavo muticus) in qinghuangdao wildlife park in hebei province, china, in 2012. a phylogenetic analysis indicated that the isolated h6n2 strain had the same gene constellation as southern china strains, which were predominantly isolated from waterfowl distribu ... | 2014 | 25619010 |
| phylogenetic analysis of a novel h6n6 avian influenza virus isolated from a green peafowl in china and its pathogenic potential in mice. | to explore the ecology of the h6 subtype avian influenza viruses in hebei province, china, a long-term surveillance was conducted in 2012 among domestic poultry and birds in a wildlife park. in this study, we report the characterization of a novel h6n6 avian influenza virus isolated from a healthy green peafowl in qinghuangdao wildlife park in 2012. a phylogenetic analysis indicated that the isolated h6n6 strain has the same gene constellation as the st3367-like strains, which are mainly distrib ... | 2014 | 25220620 |
| first report of toxoplasma gondii seroprevalence in peafowls in yunnan province, southwestern china. | toxoplasma gondii is an intracellular protozoan parasite infecting almost all warm-blooded animals, including birds, with a worldwide distribution. surveys of t. gondii infection in wild birds have been reported extensively in the world, but little is known of t. gondii infection in peafowls worldwide. this study was performed to determine the seroprevalence of t. gondii infection in peafowls in yunnan province, southwestern china. | 2012 | 22992281 |
| complete mitochondrial genome of the indian peafowl (pavo cristatus), with phylogenetic analysis in phasianidae. | pavo cristatus, known as the indian peafowl, is endemic to india and sri lanka and has been domesticated for its ornamental and food value. however, its phylogenetic status is still debated. here, to clarify the phylogenetic status of p. cristatus within phasianidae, we analyzed its mitochondrial genome (mtdna). the complete mitochondrial dna (mtdna) genome was determined using 34 pairs of primers. our data show that the mtdna genome of p. cristatus is 16,686 bp in length. molecular phylogenetic ... | 2015 | 24409883 |
