Abstrakt: Researchers have identified Avastrovirus as a significant genus of bird viruses, linked to various avian diseases such as enteritis, growth retardation, nephritis and hepatitis. These infections can cause substantial economic losses in agrocultureand have a widespread impact on global food production. Although there have been numerous studies on these viruses, most of them-mainly focuses on poultry. Research on astroviruses in wild bird populations has revealed a wide genetic diversity of these viruses, yet our understanding of their biological and ecological characteristics remains limited. In this study, we for the first time detected avastrovirus in wild migratory birds of the families Anatidae and Columbidae from Sakhalin Island, North Pacific Ocean. Phylogenetic analysis revealed the presence of Avastrovirus 2 in wild doves and Avastrovirus 3 in wild ducks. These findings provide valuable insights into the circulation of astroviruses in wild bird populations of Sakhalin Island, which lies along the East Asian-Australasian Flyway.
