- Avian metapneumovirus (aMPV) is a viral agent responsible for turkey rhinotracheitis and swollen head syndrome in chickens, with four subgroups identified (A-D).
- A study in Gilan province, Iran, collected 450 oropharyngeal samples from various bird species, revealing that 30.60% tested positive for aMPV, including chickens and turkeys.
- The findings, which identified the detected aMPVs as subtype B and marked the first report of aMPV in non-commercial birds in Iran, enhance understanding of the virus's epidemiology in the region.
