Generally NV appeared more resistant than FCV, and the suitability of FCV as a model for NV should be considered with caution, according to RT-PCR results, which are required for safe disinfection when a calicivirus-related outbreak is suspected.

The results of this study suggest that lake sediment may act as a long-term source of influenza viruses in the aquatic habitat, while the viruses may remain infectious for extended periods of time in duck feces and meat at low temperatures, allowing persistence of the virus in the environment over winter.

Various studies were done during a spontaneous outbreak of stomatitis-rhinitis-complex (mouth rot) in a collection of Mediterranean land tortoises in southern Germany to help diagnose the causative agent, establish a possible diagnostic method in vivo and provide information on the efficacy of aciclovir and ganciclovIR against chelonian herpesviruses.
