Poxvirus infection was diagnosed on the basis of gross and microscopic appearance plus the presence of typical inclusion bodies in a juvenile American green-winged teal (Anas crecca carolinensis) in Alaska. This constitutes the first known report of avian pox in migratory ducks and the first report of poxvirus infection in wild birds in Alaska.
根据大体和显微镜下的表现,以及在阿拉斯加一只幼年美洲绿翅鸭(Anas crecca carolinensis)体内发现典型包涵体,诊断为痘病毒感染。这是已知的关于候鸟鸭类禽痘的首次报告,也是阿拉斯加野生鸟类痘病毒感染的首次报告。
