Characterization of a Near-Complete Genome Sequence of a Chaphamaparvovirus from an Australian Boobook Owl (Ninox boobook).

This study reports a complete genome sequence of a variant of psittacine chaphamaparvovirus 2 detected in kidney tissue from an Australian boobook (Ninox boobook), compiled using next-generation sequencing. The genome was 4,312 bp long, encoding four open reading frames. The detection of this variant in boobook represents a significant host-switching event.
