Abstract: This invention relates to a recombinant vector including a recombinant porcine adenovirus, stably incorporating and capable of expression of at least one heterologous nucleotide sequence. The nucleotide sequence is preferably one which encodes an antigenic determinant of Hog Cholera Virus or Pseudorabies virus. The further invention relates to a method of production of recombinant vectors, to methods of preparation of vaccines based on the vectors, to administration strategies and to methods of protecting pigs from disease.
