Subsequently the authors have isolated ABV by culture in duck embryo fibroblasts using material from the brains of 5 additional birds with necropsy-confirmed PDD (Fig. 2) . Lierz and colleagues 34 have also shown that apparently healthy birds within an aviary where clinical cases were occurring were also shedding ABV as detected by fecal swabs. Diagnostic tests such as Western blots or fecal PCR can identify many, but not all ABV-infected birds, and should be employed to control the spread of this disease. Advances in understanding of proventricular dilation disease (PDD): detection of virus and viral nucleic acid in infected birds Unususal and severe lesions of proventricular dilatation disease in Cockatiels (Nymphicus hollandicus) as healthy carriers of avian bornavirus and subsequently infected with a virulent strain of the same ABV genotype.	./cache/cord-328526-es8t6t0j.txt	./txt/cord-328526-es8t6t0j.txt
