Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Avian reoviruses (ARVs) are ubiquitous in domestic poultry, with 80% of them being non-pathogenic, but they are also implicated in enteritis, hepatitis, neurological disorders, myocarditis, respiratory distress, and viral arthritis/tenosynovitis in chickens, ducks, goose, wild birds, and turkeys. Clinical diseases associated with ARVs are mostly dependent on the age and immune status of the affected host, virus pathotype, and route of exposure (oral, intratracheal, footpad, or subcutaneous).
In this Special Issue, we welcome a wide range of articles, including original research, short communications, and reviews, that focus on pathogenesis, virus evolution, reassortment, molecular markers to determine tissue tropism and serotyping, nomenclature, phylodynamic analysis, genotyping, diagnostics, and control measures, e.g., vaccines.
We look forward to receiving your submissions for this Special Issue.
Dr. Sunil Mor
Guest Editor
Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Viruses is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
