Isolation of Myxoviruses from Migratory Waterfowl in the Central Flyway
Abstract
Recent detection of influenza A and Newcastle disease viruses, in migratory waterfowl, has sparked interest in the presence of these viruses and their possible transmission to domestic flocks. The present study was designed to investigate the presence of myxoviruses in wild waterfowl wintering in and migrating through Oklahoma. In addition, the potential for transmission of these viruses between semi-domestic and wild waterfowl was studied.
