APV infection in Italy is reported from its first appearance in 1987 to present day. Serological, virological and molecular testing have been applied during one-off and longitudinal studies of turkeys and chickens. The B type virus has been found in different geographical regions but more recently, A type virus has also been detected. Material was further compared by means of PCR and sequencing of sections of selected genes. Diagnostic and prophylactic problems encountered in the field are also considered.

Abstract
APV infection in Italy is reported from its first appearance in 1987 to present day. Serological, virological and molecular testing have been applied during one-off and longitudinal studies of turkeys and chickens. The B type virus has been found in different geographical regions but more recently, A type virus has also been detected. Material was further compared by means of PCR and sequencing of sections of selected genes. Diagnostic and prophylactic problems encountered in the field are also considered.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
