Identification of a novel nidovirus associated with a neurological disease of the Australian brushtail possum (Trichosurus vulpecula)
M Dunowska, PJ Biggs, T Zheng, MR Perrott - Veterinary microbiology, 2012 - Elsevier
A novel, fatal neurological disease of the Australian brushtail possum (Trichosurus
vulpecula) was first identified in 1995 in a research facility and subsequently in free-living
possums in New Zealand and termed wobbly possum disease (WPD). The results of
previous transmission studies suggested that the aetiological agent of WPD is most likely a
virus. However, the identity of the presumed viral agent had not been elucidated. In the
current report, we describe identification of a novel virus from tissues of WPD-affected …
