Abstract
Genetic characterizations of rabies viruses circulating in carnivore and non-carnivore animals were investigated for the first time in Arkhangai province, a central region of Mongolia. Also, glycoprotein gene of the rabies virus was sequenced for the first time in Mongolia. The nucleotide sequences of the glycoprotein and nucleoprotein genes were analysed, revealing the presence of multiple lineages in this area. Of particular concern are the lineages identified in carnivores, which might emerge to spread throughout Mongolia, further facilitating transboundary transmission to neighbouring countries, including China and Russia.
