Abstract
ABSTRACTWe report here the first complete genome of the Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) genotype III strain JEV/SW/IVRI/395A/2014, isolated from stillborn piglets in India. It shares 99% identity with strain JaOArS982 and a few other strains from Japan.
Highlights
Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) is a mosquito-borne, zoonotic, viral disease caused by a Flavivirus
Published and self-designed primers were used for amplification of overlapping fragments of the JEV genome [5, 6]
The NCBI BLAST analysis revealed that this isolate shared 99% identity with strains JaOArS982 and JaTAn1/75 of Japan, 98% identity with JEV vaccine strains SA14, SA14-14-2, and SA14-12-1-7, and 97% identity with the Indian JEV strain GP78
Summary
Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) is a mosquito-borne, zoonotic, viral disease caused by a Flavivirus. Viral RNA of JEV/SW/IVRI/395A/2014 was isolated from a stillborn piglet’s brain tissue using Vero cells per standard procedure [4]. Published and self-designed primers were used for amplification of overlapping fragments of the JEV genome [5, 6].
