    The Exotic Clinic, Herzlyia, Israel
    Virol J 6:100. 2009
    ..However, it remains unclear whether ABV infection actually causes PDD. To address this question, we examined the impact of ABV inoculation on the cockatiel (Nymphicus hollandicus)...

    Amy L Kistler
    Department of Microbiology and Immunology, University of California, San Francisco, California, USA
    Virol J 4:40. 2007
    ..Previous comparative genome sequence analyses indicate that recombination drives diversification in multiple genera of the picornavirus family, yet it remains unclear if this holds for HRV...

    Amy L Kistler
    Departments of Biochemistry, Microbiology and Medicine, Howard Hughes Medical Institute, University of California, San Francisco, 94143, USA
    Virol J 5:88. 2008
    ..For almost 40 years, a viral etiology for PDD has been suspected, but to date no candidate etiologic agent has been reproducibly linked to the disease...

    Amy L Kistler
    Howard Hughes Medical Institute and UCSF Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1700 4th St, QB3 Room 403, San Francisco, CA 94143 2542, USA
    J Virol 84:2176-9. 2010
    ..These findings demonstrate that ABV infection precedes the development of PDD. ABV-specific Western blotting and reverse transcription-PCR indicate that ABV2 is not strictly neurotropic...
