1. A method of vaccination of pigs against disease comprising administering to said pigs a first recombinant porcine adenovirus (PAV) vector stably incorporating, and expressing a heterologous nucleotide sequence encoding at least one antigenic determinant of said disease against which vaccination is desired, wherein said heterologous nucleotide sequence is inserted into a non-essential region of a site selected from the group consisting of the E3 region and map units 97-99.5 of PAV-3 wherein said PAV3 vector further comprises a heterologous nucleotide sequence encoding PAV-4 fiber.
