Pathological Aspects and Pathogenesis of Parrot Bornavirus 2 (PaBV-2) Infection in Psittacine Birds Leal De Araujo, Jeann (2018-04-02)Parrot bornaviruses (PaBVs) are RNA viruses of the Bornaviridae family and the causative agents of proventricular dilatation disease (PDD). PDD has many aspects that remain to be elucidated, including the mechanisms involved ...
