May affect chicken flock health; leaves open clinical significance of FP3/612 viruses pending controlled trials.
Novel fowl enterovirus-like viruses exhibit varying degrees of tissue tropism and pathogenicity in chickens, with ELV-1 and FP3 causing more severe lesions than the 612 virus.
Smyth et al. (2007) studied Enterovirus-like virus infection. Enterovirus-like viruses (FP3, 612, ELV-1, ANV) was evaluated on Tissue tropism and associated pathology. Enterovirus-like viruses FP3, 612, ELV-1, and ANV replicated in the intestine of chickens and showed differing abilities to spread to other tissues, causing mostly mild histological changes.
