Abstract
First Nearly Complete Genome Sequence of Porcine Bocavirus Strain from Malaysia
Highlights
The family Parvoviridae is currently classified with two subfamilies: Parvovirinae and Densovirinae, infecting vertebrate and non-vertebrate hosts respectively
The near complete genome of Malaysian Porcine bocavirus (PBoV) had been submitted to GenBank under accession number MK467456
With the characterization of Malaysian Porcine bocavirus isolate as strain PBoV G3B having close relationship with U.S.A. reference strains KF025382 and KF025386, we suggest that routine screening of imported breeders could be helpful to monitor the status of new emerging disease in Malaysian swine farms
Summary
The family Parvoviridae is currently classified with two subfamilies: Parvovirinae and Densovirinae, infecting vertebrate and non-vertebrate hosts respectively. Parvovirinae is further classified into five genera: Dependovirus, Bocavirus, Erythrovirus, Parvovirus and Amdovirus (Claude and Fauquet, 2004). Since the discovery of human bocavirus (HBoV) in 2005 (Allander et al, 2005), it has been associated with human respiratory tract gastrointestinal infections (Schildgen et al, 2008; Kapoor, et al, 2009; Schildgen, 2010; Kantola et al, 2011; Khamrin et al, 2012). In 2018, PBoV had emerged as a zoonosis; causing respiratory infection in a child with history
