Avian pox viruses are frequently transmitted by insects
true
The mucosal form of Fowl pox is benign
false
Neurological disorders are frequent in Porcine parvovirus infections.
false
The primary site of Porcine parvovirus (PPV-1) replication is in the small intestine.
true
Canine parvoviruses are shed in high concentrations with the feces
true
Subtypes of Canine parvovirus (CPV-2) cause panleukopenia in cats
true
Feline panleukopenia viruses may infect dogs
false
Mink parvovirus enteritis is characterized by fever and high mortality
true
Live vaccines are used against Aleutian Mink Disease

true
Derzsy ́s disease virus can cross into the egg.
true
Derzsy ́s disease may occur both in geese and Muscovy chucks.
true
Hemorrhagic nephritis and enteritis of geese is caused by herpes viruses.

true
Porcine circoviruses are genetically and antigenically uniform.
false
Porcine circoviruses may cause a variety of diseases
true
Infection of day-old chickens with Chicken Anemia Virus leads to immune suppression.
true
Avian circovirus infections result high morbidity and low mortality.
true
Pigeon circoviruses are antigenically uniform.
false
Pigeon circoviruses frequently appear in diseases together with other viruses and bacteria
true
Germinative infection is frequent in mammals, it will result in malformation of the fetuses.
false
Galactogen infection cannot happen when the animals receive colostrum, since the antibodies in the colostrum prevent it.
false
In the case of horizontal infection animals in the same group infect each other
true
Intra uterine infection can occur in pregnant animals
true
Pathogenicity means the ability of the agent to cause disease
true
Virulence means the level of pathogenicity
true
The amount of the agent does not influence the outcome of the infection, since it can replicate in the host.
false

false
The virulence of the agents is connected to virulence factors.
true
Virulence is a stable characteristic of an agent.
