Haemorrhages in the parenchymal organs are frequent postmortem lesions of avian encephalomyelitis
F
No pathological lesions
Haemorrhages are frequent postmortem lesions of avian encephalomyelitis
F
There is germinative spread in the case of avian encephalomyelitis
T
There is no germinative infection in the case of avian encephalomyelitis
F
Avian encephalomyelitis is not transmitted germinatively.
F
Tremor is a typical clinical sign of avian encephalomyelitis
T
Avian encephalomyelitis belongs to the tremovirus genus = tremor being a typical sign
Avian Encephalomyelitis is not transmitted through the egg
F
Avian encephalomyelitis virus can infect chicken
T
All age groups
Clinical signs of avian encephalomyelitis can be seen in animals up to 5 weeks of age
T
1-5 weeks
Avian encephalomyelitis virus is shed in the faeces
T
The primary way
Avian encephalomyelitis is caused by a double stranded DNA virus
F
RNA virus
Chickens are susceptible to avian encephalomyelitis virus
T
Germinative infection is a way of spreading of avian encephalomyelitis virus
T
Avian encephalomyelitis is caused by enterovirus
F
Tremorvirus
BUT used to be enterovirus
Incubation time of Avian encephalomyelitis virus is 11 (9-10) days following PO infection
T
1-11 days incubation
Incubation time of Avian encephalomyelitis virus depends on the mode of infection
T
Avian encephalomyelitis is caused by a hepatovirus
F
Tremovirus

F
Avian encephalomyelitis virus kills the embryo
F
Avian encephalomyelitis is present only in chickens.
F
All age groups of galliformes
Avian encephalomyelitis virus is killed at hatching temperature.
F
Avian encephalomyelitis spreads both horizontally and via eggs
T
Infection via eggs does not occur in Avian encephalomyelitis
F
Avian encephalomyelitis is not transmitted through the egg.
F
(Caused by tremovirus)
Germinative infection can happen in the case of duck hepatitis
F
Spasmodical paddling is a frequent clinical sign of duck hepatitis
T
Due to damage of kidney
The resistance of duck hepatitis A virus is high
T
Non-enveloped virus = high resistance
Ducks are infected with the duck hepatitis A virus generally per os
T
Duck hepatitis cannot be prevented with vaccination
F
We have attenuated and inactivated vaccine
Duck hepatitis A virus is shed in the faeces
T
Duck hepatitis A virus does not cause viraemia.
F
Ducks are infected with the duck hepatitis A virus generally per os
T
Duck hepatitis A virus can cause germinative infection
F
Clinical signs of duck hepatitis can be seen mainly in laying ducks
F
Mainly in ducks between 1-4 weeks of age
Duck hepatitis A virus can be detected with PCR.
T
Germinative infection is the primary way of infection with Duck hepatitis A Virus.
F
There is no germinative infection
Clinical signs of Duck hepatitis are seen in 1-4 week old ducklings.
T
Spasmodical paddling is a typical sign of Duck hepatitis.
T
There are no vaccines for the prevention of Duck hepatitis.
