A cDNA clone encoding a beta-thyroid hormone receptor (TRbeta) from muscovy duckling liver was isolated and sequenced. Comparison with the chicken TRbeta sequence showed a high degree of homology. This cDNA was used as a probe to characterize the TRbeta mRNA transcripts expressed in muscovy duckling liver.

Goose parvovirus (GPV) is an etiological agent of Derzsy's disease, afflicting geese and Muscovy ducks worldwide. Its high mortality rate among goslings and ducklings causes large losses to the waterfowl industry. Toward molecular and structural characterization, virus-like particles (VLPs) of GPV were produced, and the capsid structure was determined by cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) at a resolution of 2.

Since 2023, an infectious upper respiratory tract disease has been persisted in outbreaks among in a flock of Cherry Valley ducks in Shandong Province, China. This outbreak was traced to avian metapneumovirus subtype C (aMPV-C), a significant pathogen associated with egg-drop and acute respiratory diseases in poultry. It is noteworthy that prior to this, aMPV-C infection had not been previously documented in Cherry Valley ducks within China.

The recently identified novel duck reovirus (NDRV) is a waterfowl reovirus that can seriously harm or kill various waterfowl species. However, how NDRV interacts with host cells in Muscovy ducklings beyond the typical pathogenesis resulting from a viral infection is unknown. The current study examined the global translation efficiency of the Fabricius bursa of Muscovy ducklings infected with NDRV HN10 using mass spectrometry and ribosome footprint sequencing.

Introduction: Classical Muscovy duck reovirus (C-MDRV) and goose-origin Muscovy duck reovirus (Go-MDRV) infections cause "Liver white-spots disease" in Muscovy duckling and gosling. It is difficult to differentiate the infections caused by C-MDRV and Go-MDRV using conventional serological methods.
Methods: Specific primers were designed and synthesized according to σNS and λA nucleotide sequences of C-MDRV and Go-MDRV, respectively.
