We are defining the role
of a unique strain of avian astrovirus in an emerging disease of turkeys (Poult Enteritis Mortality Syndrome).
We published the complete sequence of
the astrovirus (J. Virol 74: 6173-6177) and have described an RT-PCR test (J.
Virol. Meth. 90: 79-83).
We are very interested in collaborating with any interested groups. The current
interests in the laboratory include developing an infectious clone,
understanding the role of the immune response to astrovirus infection, and
apoptosis.
