Isolation of adenoviruses and reoviruses from avian species other than domestic fowl

J B McFerran et al. Avian Dis. 1976 Jul-Sep.

Abstract

Adenoviruses and reoviruses were isolated from pigeons and mallard ducks. In addition, adenoviruses were isolated from budgerigars and a bantam and a reovirus was isolated from a turkey. Primary identification of these viruses was by electron-microscope examination. It was further possible to assign the 4 adenoviruses to recognized fowl serotypes, and the reoviruses shared a common antigen with fowl reoviruses. These viruses were isolated from a variety of clinical conditions.
