Astroviruses (AstVs) are small RNA viruses characterized by a high mutation rate, the ability
to recombine, and interspecies transmission, which allows them to infect a multitude of hosts …

Astroviruses are small, non-enveloped viruses with positive sense, single-stranded RNA
genomes. The family Astroviridae contains two genera, Mamastrovirus and Avastrovirus …

Astroviruses (AstV) are single-stranded, positive-sense RNA viruses, best known for causing
diarrhea in humans and are also found in many other mammals; in those, the relevance in …

Abstract Background Although astroviruses (AstV) have been detected in a variety of host
species, there are only limited records of their occurrence in deer. One of the most important …

Astroviruses are frequently associated with enteric diseases in poultry, being isolated from
cases of runting-stunting syndrome (RSS) of broiler chickens, poult enteritis complex (PEC) …

Canine astrovirus RNA was detected in the stools of 17/63 (26.9%) samples, using either a
broadly reactive consensus RT-PCR for astroviruses or random RT-PCR coupled with …

Knowledge of porcine astrovirus diversity and epidemiology remains limited. We used a
broad range PCR approach to investigate the presence and diversity of astroviruses in …

Many astrovirus (AstV) species are associated with enteric disease, although extraintestinal
manifestations in mammalian and avian hosts have also been described. In this study, the …

Using a pan-astrovirus reverse transcription-PCR assay, a great diversity of novel
avastroviruses was detected from wild bird and poultry samples. Two groups of astroviruses …

Astroviruses can infect mammalian and avian species and are often responsible for
gastroenteric disease symptoms. In this study, the complete open reading frame (ORF) 2, the …
