Abstract
The focus of the present study is to find out the pathotype, genotype and evolution
of two isolates of pigeon paramyxovitus namely D167 and D168, which have
been reported to cause nervous lesions and mortality among pigeons. The
pathotype identification of D167 and Dl68 have been done by mean death time
(MDT) estimation in embryonated chicken eggs, intracerebral pathogenicity index
estimation (ICPI) in day old chicks and infection of maternal antibody negative
SPF chicks through different routes. In order to demonstrate the pathogenetic
difference of chicken and pigeon origin NDV, a comparative study has been done
using chicken and pigeon isolates in one month old SPF chicks.
