| nearly full-length genome sequence of a novel astrovirus isolated from chickens with 'white chicks' condition. | avian astroviruses (aastvs) are divided into three species, avastrovirus 1, avastrovirus 2, and avastrovirus 3, but there are a few strains are waiting to be assigned to an official taxonomic group. this study presents the molecular characterization of chicken astrovirus (castv), pl/g059/2014, which is involved in the induction of "white chicks" condition. the 7382-nucleotide-long genome sequence was determined by next-generation sequencing using an illumina miseq system. phylogenetic analysis s ... | 2016 | 27339687 |
