[Sensitivity of Japanese quail, embryos and embryonal tissue culture to infection with several avian viruses]. 1977

N N Bogomolova, and O E Shcherbakova

The sensitivity of the biological system Japanese quail-embryo-quail fibroblast cultures to some common fowl viruses (Newcastle disease virus, infectious laryngotracheitis and infectious bronchitis viruses) was studied. Japanese quails, their embryos and embryo cell cultures were found to be sensitive to Newcastle disease virus infection. The virus reproduction was accompanied by death of embryos and destruction of cell culture. Japanese quails are sensitive to infectious laryngotracheitis virus given as aerosol. Reproduction of this virus in embryos was accompanied by formation of plaques on the chorioallantoic membrane and in the cell cultures by incomplete cytopathic effect. Japanese quails were found to be sensitive to infectious bronchitis virus, while their embryos and embryo cell cultures had low susceptibility to this virus.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D009522	Newcastle disease virus	The most well known avian paramyxovirus in the genus AVULAVIRUS and the cause of a highly infectious pneumoencephalitis in fowl. It is also reported to cause CONJUNCTIVITIS in humans. Transmission is by droplet inhalation or ingestion of contaminated water or food.	Avian Paramyxovirus 1,Paramyxovirus 1, Avian
D003332	Coronaviridae	Spherical RNA viruses, in the order NIDOVIRALES, infecting a wide range of animals including humans. Transmission is by fecal-oral and respiratory routes. Mechanical transmission is also common. There are two genera: CORONAVIRUS and TOROVIRUS.	Bafinivirus,Coronavirinae,Torovirinae,White bream virus,Bafiniviruses,White bream viruses
