Isolation of a Complete Circular Virus Genome Sequence from an Alaskan Black-Capped Chickadee ( <i>Poecile atricapillus</i> ) Gastrointestinal Tract Sample

Abstract

We report here the genome sequence of a circular virus isolated from samples of an Alaskan black-capped chickadee (Poecile atricapillus) gastrointestinal tract. The genome is 2,152 bp in length and is most similar (30 to 44.5% amino acid identity) to the genome sequences of other single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) circular viruses belonging to the gemycircularvirus group.
