An outbreak of Turkey rhinotracheitis caused by an Avian pneumovirus (APV) subtype A is described in one Italian meat turkey farm. The flocks were sited in Perugia province. Virus isolation was performed in chicken tracheal organ coltures and the strain was typed by a subtype specific nested RT-PCR. This is the first evidence that APV subtype A is present in Italy.
