Study of pathogenicity of fowl pox and pigeon pox virus isolates recovered in Russian Federation

Abstract

The paper demonstrates results of the studies of pathogenicity of fowl pox virus (Chicken/Rus-Rjazan/ FPV/2009 isolate) and pigeon pox virus (Pigeon/Rus-Astrakhan/PGPV/2012 and Pigeon/Rus-Vladimir/ PGPV/2010 isolates) using cross-infection. The chicks were infected intraocularly and intranasally or in-tradermally and epidermally. No clinical signs were reported in chicks and pigeons following intraocular and intranasal infection. Epidermal and intradermal infection pigeon pox isolates induced local skin lesions only in pigeons. Proliferative necrotizing folliculitis was reported in chicks only post intradermal infection with fowl pox isolate. Therefore it was experimentally proved that the recovered field isolates of pigeon and fowl pox viruses are highly specific for the natural host.
