Complete Genome Sequence of Psittacine Adenovirus 1, Identified from Poicephalus senegalus in Italy.

ABSTRACT: Using a metagenomics approach, we were able to determine for the first time the full-genome sequence of a psittacine adenovirus 1 isolate that was recovered from the liver of a dead Senegal parrot (Poicephalus senegalus) in Italy. The results of the phylogenetic investigations revealed the existence of high genetic diversity among adenoviruses circulating in psittacine birds.
