“…The superiority of this PCR in detecting AdVs belonging to different genera has been documented in numerous cases in the past decade. It was originally designed for the recognition of novel atadenovirues in lizards, but its sensitivity and robustness allowed the discovery of many new aviadenoviruses (Wellehan et al, 2005;Bodewes et al, 2013), siadenoviruses (Katoh et al, 2009;Wellehan et al, 2009;Kovács et al, 2010;Park et al, 2012;Ballmann and Vidovszky, 2013;Joseph et al, 2014;Lee et al, 2014), atadenoviruses (Szirovicza et al, 2016) and mastadenoviruses (Vidovszky et al, 2015) in a wide range of hosts. Even the members of a hitherto unknown genus (with the proposed name Testadenovirus) could be detected (Doszpoly et al, 2013).…”

“…The first members of the genus Siadenovirus were discovered in poultry showing different signs of serious disease (Smyth and McNulty, 2008), as well as in a frog (Davison et al, 2000). While the number of siadenoviruses detected in a wide range of birds is increasing (Zsivanovits et al, 2006;Kovács et al, 2010;Park et al, 2012;Lee et al, 2014), there are only two approved members of the genus Atadenovirus known to be capable of infecting birds. Pigeons have not been found to harbour AdVs from any of these two genera until now.…”

Up to now, only a single adenovirus (AdV) isolate seemingly specific for pigeons, hence named pigeon AdV-1 (PiAdV-1), has been characterised at DNA sequence level. In the present work, the prevalence and diversity of AdVs occurring in domestic pigeon were examined by a survey performed on randomly collected samples using a very efficient, consensus nested PCR targeting the viral DNA polymerase gene. The newly detected viruses were characterised by sequencing and phylogeny analysis. Amplification of additional genome fragments was attempted by the use of several other PCR methods aiming at the hexon gene. During a 4-year survey, samples from dead or live, healthy pigeons originating from 27 lofts were examined in Hungary. Almost 50% of the samples (48 out of 97) proved to be positive for AdV. Sequence analysis revealed the presence of four hitherto unknown pigeon AdV types. PiAdV-1 was also identified in one sample. Two novel viruses named PiAdV-2 and -3 were found to belong to the genus Aviadenovirus, and two other novel types (PiAdV-4 and -5) to the genus Siadenovirus. This is the first report on the occurrence of siadenoviruses in birds belonging to the order Columbiformes. Approximately two-thirds of the PiAdV-2 genome was sequenced and analysed.

“…Moreover, Aci-HV-1 may represent even a separate subfamily. Since there is no hope for the isolation of PHV in the near future, its further study could be attempted with an approach that had been applied successfully for the sequencing of a nonisolated adenovirus detected in a great tit [33] . The method was a nonspecific DNA amplification by isothermal multiple displacement whole-genome amplification [34] .…”

Objective: Partial genome sequences were determined and subjected to comparative analyses from two fish herpesviruses (HVs). Acipenserid (Aci) HV-2, originating from the white sturgeon (Acipenser transmontanus), and ictalurid (Ic) HV-2, isolated from the black bullhead (Ameiurus melas), are recently approved species of the genus Ictalurivirus of the family Alloherpesviridae. Methods: An almost 8,000-base-pair fragment, spanning between the genes of the DNA polymerase and the ATPase subunit of the terminase, was sequenced from each virus. Results: The size, position and orientation of 2 partial and 3 full open reading frames, contained in the studied genome fragment, proved to be similar to their counterparts in IcHV-1, the type species of the genus Ictalurivirus. Thus, a well-conserved genus-specific gene block was identified. In the members of two other genera (Cyprinivirus and Batrachovirus) of the family Alloherpesviridae, no such gene block could be found; the location and orientation of the homologous genes showed significant divergence. Conclusion: The results of phylogenetic calculations were in good agreement with the genome arrangements inasmuch as AciHV-2, IcHV-1 and -2 are monophyletic and separated from the lineages of the other two genera. The new sequence enabled the inclusion of a hitherto unassigned HV, that of the Australian pilchard, into a phylogenetic calculation.

“…However, members of the Atadenovirus genus have been reported in a broad range of hosts, including mammals (Dan et al, 1998), birds (Hess et al, 1997) and reptiles (Farkas et al, 2008;Wellehan et al, 2004). Similar to atadenoviruses, members of the Siadenovirus genus can infect birds (Kovacs & Benko, 2009;Kovacs et al, 2010) and amphibians (Davison et al, 2000).…”
