【 摘 要 】

References(27)Cited-By(6)Relatively little is known about the distribution of avian paramyxoviruses(APMVs) among wild birds in Japan. Surveillance of APMV in migratory waterfowl wasconducted in the San-in region of western Japan during winters of 2006 to 2012. A total of16 avian paramyxoviruses consisting of 3 lentogenic Newcastle disease viruses (NDVs), 12APMV-4 and 1 APMV-8 were isolated from 1,967 wild-bird fecal samples. The results showthat NDV and APMV-4 are relatively widely distributed among wild waterfowl that migrate toJapan from northern regions. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that there was no geneticrelationship between the isolates from wild birds and domestic poultry in Japan. However,surveillance of APMVs in wild waterfowl needs to be conducted due to the pathogenicpotential of these isolates in domestic poultry.
