Abstract
We, the Editor and Publisher of World’s Poultry Science Journal, have retracted the following article:
S. Umar, H. Sabir, A. Ahmed & S. Subhan, ‘Avian metapneumovirus infection in poultry’ (2016) 72:4, 833-846 https://doi.org/10.1017/S0043933916000738.
The above article has been retracted as, subsequent to publication, significant duplication has been found in content throughout the article with the following degree project report:
Clara Atterby. 2012. ‘A Minor Field Study on Avian Metapneumovirus’ Degree project within the Veterinary Medicine Program. Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences. https://stud.epsilon.slu.se/3991/1/atterby_c_120320.pdf
We have been informed in our decision-making by our policy on publishing ethics and integrity and the COPE guidelines on retractions.
The retracted article will remain online to maintain the scholarly record, but it will be digitally watermarked on each page as “Retracted”.
