ABSTRACT
Papillomaviruses are small circular DNA viruses that infect epithelial and mucosal cells and have co-evolved with their hosts. Some papillomaviruses in mammals are well studied (especially those associated with disease). However, there is limited information on papillomaviruses associated with avian hosts. From a cloacal swab sample of a mallard (Anas platyrhynchos) sampled in Missouri, USA (6 Jan 2023), we identified a papillomavirus (7839 nt) that shares ~68% genome-wide nucleotide sequence identity with Anas platyrhynchos papillomavirus 1 (AplaPV1) from a mallard sampled in Newfoundland (Canada) and ~40% with AplaPV2 from a mallard sampled in Minnesota (USA) with mesenchymal dermal tumors. The papillomavirus we identified shares 73.6% nucleotide sequence identity in the L1 gene with that of AplaPV1 and thus represents a new AplaPV type (AplaPV3). The genome sequence of AplaPV3 shares >97% identity with three partial PV genome sequences (1316, 1997, and 4241 nt) identified in a mallard in India, indicating that that virus was also AplaPV3.
