Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

I am very glad to find all the questions I have raised before were responded effectively in the new manuscript, and I think this mansuscript is ready for publication.

Author Response

We are glad to hear that, and we would like to thank this respected reviewer for approval. We hope everything goes well with you!

 

Reviewer 2 Report

Dear Authors,

 resubmitting your paper allowed you to further improve it.

The manuscript is very well structured and the reading is fluent. I would like more space and visibility to be given to images, tables, graphs, and figures, since they are very well done and are very demonstrative of the results obtained, representing an essential component.

Therefore, in my opinion, with minor revisions, the manuscript will be ready for publication and will certainly meet the consent of scholars and readers.

Here are some of my comments and suggestions:

- Please remove from the keywords "Muscovy duck parvovirus" as it is already present in the Title;

- check the References section by following the template and the "Instructions for Authors" of the Journal.
