Published by U.S. Geological Survey | Department of the Interior | Catalog Last Checked: May 05, 2026 at 10:13 PM | Dataset Last Updated: August 21, 2020 at 12:00 AM
We reviewed pathological findings and to a lesser extent epidemiological data from 70 free-ranging columbiforms naturally infected with Pigeon paramyxovirus-1 (PPMV-1) from 25 different PPMV-1 mortality events in columbiforms in the USA. In a subset of 17 birds from 10 of the studied outbreaks, we carried out immunohistochemistry targeting PPMV-1 nucleoprotein to determine the tissue distribution of the virus.
