A viral enteric disease of young turkeys characterized by stunting of affected birds, diarrhea, and increased mortality is described. Eosinophilic intranuclear inclusion bodies were found in the absorptive epithelial cells of the ileum. Electron microscopy of formalin-fixed tissue revealed that the intestinal inclusions contained numerous loosely packed 15-to 20-nm hexagonal particles. The size, shape, and intranuclear location have been used to tentatively identify these particles as parvoviruses.
