AI Article Synopsis
- Duck viral hepatitis (DVH) is a severe viral disease affecting ducklings, caused by the Duck Hepatitis A virus (DHAV), leading to neurological issues and liver damage.
- Recent mutations and the emergence of new epidemic strains, particularly genotype 3 (DHAV-3), have complicated diagnosis and control efforts, as mixed infections increase.
- The review focuses on various aspects of DHAV, including its biology, epidemiology, and methods for diagnosis and prevention, aiming to support future research efforts.
Article Abstract
Duckviral hepatitis (DVH) is a highly lethal and highly transmissible viral infectious disease of ducklings caused by the Duck Hepatitis A virus (DHAV), which is characterized by clinical neurological symptoms and liver enlargement with spot-like hemorrhages. In recent years, the change in diagnosis, prevention, and control of the disease has brought great challenges due to the mutation and recombination of epidemic strains, outbreaks and epidemics of genotype 3 (DHAV-3), and the rising trend of mixed infections. Here, we review DHAV on aspects of molecular biological characteristics, epidemiology, pathologic changes, pathogenesis, diagnosis, prevention, and control of the DVH to provide a scientific basis for basic and applied research in the future.

Duck virus hepatitis (DVH), caused by duck hepatitis A virus (DHAV), poses significant challenges to duck farming due to high mortality rates in young ducklings. Despite the widespread use of live attenuated vaccines, the genetic diversity within DHAV strains has diminished their cross-protection efficacy. This study aimed to evaluate the cross-protective efficacy of current DHAV-1 and DHAV-3 vaccines against genetically divergent wild strains.

Duck Tembusu virus (DTMUV), duck hepatitis virus (DHV), Muscovy duck reovirus (MDRV), and Muscovy duck parvovirus (MDPV) represent four emergent infectious diseases impacting waterfowl, which can be challenging to differentiate due to overlapping clinical signs. In response to this, we have developed a one-step multiplex real-time fluorescence quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) assay, capable of simultaneously detecting DTMUV, DHV, MDRV, and MDPV. This method exhibits high specificity, avoiding cross-reactivity with other viruses such as Fowl adenoviruses (FADV), infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV), infectious bronchitis virus (IBV), infectious laryngotracheitis virus (ILTV), Haemophilus paragallinarum (Hpg), duck circovirus (DUCV), goose astrovirus (GoAstV), and mycoplasma gallisepticum (MG).

North America is home to over 40 species of migratory waterfowl. Utilizing tissue and cloacal-swab sampling from hunter-harvested carcasses in 2021-2023, we identified circular DNA viruses associated with 116 waterfowl samples from nine species (American wigeons, Mexican ducks, northern shovelers, northern pintails, canvasbacks, mallards, American black ducks, gadwalls, and green-winged teals). We determined the genome sequences of viruses in the families Circoviridae (n = 18) and Hepadnaviridae (n = 2) from the 13 virus-infected birds.

Duck viral hepatitis (DVH) is a common and serious acute infectious disease that has a significantly impact on the duck farming industry. Duck hepatitis A virus type 3 (DHAV-3) is the major causative agent of DVH in East Asia. Host factor indicators of resistance to DHAV-3 in Pekin ducks were investigated using resistant (Z7R) and susceptible (Z7S) duck lines.

Researchers have identified Avastrovirus as a significant genus of bird viruses, linked to various avian diseases such as enteritis, growth retardation, nephritis and hepatitis. These infections can cause substantial economic losses in agrocultureand have a widespread impact on global food production. Although there have been numerous studies on these viruses, most of them-mainly focuses on poultry.
