A haemagglutination inhibition assay was used to detect antibody to psittacine beak and feather disease virus in sera from wild sulphur crested cockatoos (Cacatua galerita), galahs (Eolophus roseicapillus), short-billed corellas (Cacatua sanguinea), eastern long-billed corellas (Cacatua tenuirostris) and other psittacine birds in New South Wales. The seroprevalence of psittacine beak and feather disease ranged from 41% to 94% in different flocks, indicating infection with the virus is widespread in wild populations.
采用血凝抑制试验检测新南威尔士州野生硫冠凤头鹦鹉（白凤头鹦鹉）、粉红凤头鹦鹉、短嘴凤头鹦鹉、东部长嘴凤头鹦鹉及其他鹦鹉类鸟类血清中鹦鹉喙羽病病毒抗体。鹦鹉喙羽病的血清阳性率在不同鸟群中为41%至94%，表明该病毒感染在野生种群中广泛存在。
