(DNA VIRUSES) Lesson 9: Adenoviridae Flashcards
General description
Non-enveloped, double-stranded
DNA viruses
Icosahedral symmetry
Replicate in nuclei, forming
intranuclear inclusion bodies
Moderately stable in the
environment
Has four genera
Causes systemic and respiratory diseases in dogs
Causes systemic diseases in poultry

(BOD)
Bovine adenovirus D
Ovine adenovirus D
Duck adenovirus A
viruses under Siadenovirus
Frog adenovirus
Turkey adenovirus A
causes infectious canine hepatitis, with lesions arising from direct cytopathic effects and immune complex formation
Canine adenovirus serotype1 (dog, fox)
It is involved in infectious tracheobronchitis (kennel cough), a highly contagious respiratory disease
Canine adenovirus serotype 2 (dog)
kennel cough also known as
tracheobronchitis
Canine adenovirus serotype 2 causes what?
infectious tracheobronchitis (kennel cough)
Usually, it is a subclinical or mild respiratory infection in the horse population.
Equine adenovirus A
It is associated with pneumonia, which is invariably fatal, in Arabian foals with severe combined immunodeficiency disease
Equine adenovirus A
Associated with occasional outbreaks of respiratory and enteric disease
Bovine adenoviruses
Ovine adenoviruses
Usually subclinical infections; occasionally cause diarrhoea
Porcine adenoviruses
Frequently isolated from healthy birds or following respiratory disease. Associated with quail bronchitis, inclusion body hepatitis, and hepatitis–hydropericardium syndrome
Fowl adenoviruses
Fowl adenoviruses are associated with what conditions?
Quail bronchitis
Inclusion body hepatitis
Hepatitis–hydropericardium syndrome
Causes egg drop syndrome in laying hens
Duck adenovirus A
Causes turkey haemorrhagic enteritis (dysentery in 4 to 12-week-old poults with a mortality rate of up to 60%) and marble spleen disease
in pheasants (characterized by sudden death, pulmonary oedema and splenic necrosis in 2 to 8-month-old birds)
Turkey adenovirus A
Turkey adenovirus A causes the following conditions
haemorrhagic enteritis
marble spleen disease
dysentery in 4 to 12-week-old poults with a mortality rate of up to 60%
haemorrhagic enteritis (Turkey adenovirus A)
