In line with the Latin expression “sed parva forti” meaning “small but mighty,” the family
Parvoviridae contains many of the smallest known viruses, some of which result in fatal or …

Poultry parvoviruses identified during the early 1980s are found worldwide in intestines from
young birds with enteric disease syndromes as well as healthy birds. The chicken parvovirus …

Passeriformes, more commonly known as perching birds or passerines, are the most
species-rich group of birds. Totaling nearly 6500 species, approximately two out of every …

Identifying viruses in synanthropic animals is necessary for understanding the origin of many
