Abstract
Psittacine birds are very popular and raised as pet animals in Thailand. However, the viral infections are the main obstacle and generally detected in psittacine birds such as Psittacine Beak and Feather Disease (PBFD), Avian Polyomavirus Disease (APD) and Proventricular Dilatation Disease (PDD). The DNA virus include Psittacine beak and feather disease virus (PBFDV) is a causative agent of PBFD and Avian Polyomaviruses (APV) as a causative agent of APD. While, Avian Bornavirus (ABV) is RNA virus which is the causative agent of PDD. These viruses regarding with high mortality and difficulties in treatment and control. Therefore, the aim of this review is to summarize the knowledge of viral biology, clinical sign, pathogenesis, diagnosis, control and prevention. The information may be valuable for veterinary students and veterinary practitioners to develop more effective control and reduce the economic loss in case of disease outbreaks.
