Preliminary characterisation of paramyxovirus isolated from a parrot.
A virus, designated 0121, which was isolated from a parrot, was shown to be a paramyxovirus, which was serologically related to the paramyxoviruses Bangor/flinch/N. Ireland/73 (Bangor) and Yucaipa/chicken/California/60(PMY). However, the 0121 virus differed in several properties from both the PMY and the Bangor viruses. The virus was not pathogenic for chickens. I was designated Paramyxovirus: Parrot/England/0121/74.
