Abstract

A necropsy was performed on an American kestrel (Falco sparverius) with necrotizing hepatitis associated with inclusion bodies, suggesting an adenovirus infection. A next-generation sequencing assay was conducted on the liver, and the coding-complete genome sequence of a Falcon aviadenovirus A strain was revealed.
