Abstract excerpt
Pigeon circovirus (PiCV) was detected by PCR in pigeons from China. Altogether, 48 out of 244 pigeons tested positive for PiCV (positive rate, 19.67%), suggesting that the virus was prevalent in China. From the 48 PiCV-positive samples, about 2040bp complete genome fragments were obtained by full length genome amplification and sequenced with a next-generation sequencing platform. Characteristics of the ORFs from...
