Abstract

Three complete genomes of beak and feather disease virus (BFDV) were recovered from wild twenty-eight parrots (Polytelis anthopeplus monarchoides). The genomes consisted of 1,996 bp with 1,934 identical sites and a typically content stem-loop structure between ORF1 and ORF2. This is the first report of BFDV infection as well as the complete genome sequences for this host species globally.

Highlights

  • The three complete genomes of beak and feather disease virus (BFDV) from the twenty-eight parrot consist of 1,996 bp with a GϩC content of 53.2%

  • This study highlights the evidence of BFDV infection for the first time in Australian ringneck parrots, which may provide novel insights into the viral evolution and conservation of this host species

  • The three complete genomes of BFDV have been deposited at DDBJ/ENA/GenBank under the accession numbers KF688548, KF688549, and KF688550
