Novel Avian Coronavirus and Fulminating Disease in Guinea Fowl, France

Year: 2013

Type: article

Abstract: For decades, French guinea fowl have been affected by fulminating enteritis of unclear origin. By using metagenomics, we identified a novel avian gammacoronavirus associated with this disease that is distantly related to turkey coronaviruses. Fatal respiratory diseases in humans have recently been caused by coronaviruses of animal origin.
