    Journal: Acta Virol; 1990 Aug; 34(4):339-45. PubMed ID: 1981444.
    Abstract:
    A pathogenic agent designated AV 172 was isolated from the blood of a Reed Warbler (Acrocephalus scirpaceus) out of 767 samples from birds belonging to 35 species and 14 families. The birds (largely wetland passerines) were captured in the reed-belt littoral of Nesyt fishpond in southern Moravia, Czechoslovakia, during the years 1984 to 1987. Virus AV 172 has been found to represent probably a new species (designated virus "Sedlec") of family Bunyaviridae. Sedlec virus is pathogenic to suckling and adult mice when inoculated intracerebrally (i.c.) but not intraperitoneally (i.p.) and its ether-sensitive spherical particles measures 90-100 nm.
