Complete Genome Sequence of Foot-and-Mouth Disease Virus Serotype O Isolated from Bangladesh.

ABSTRACT: Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is a highly infectious enzootic disease caused by FMD virus. The complete genome sequence of a circulatory FMD virus (FMDV) serotype O isolated from Natore, Bangladesh, is reported here. Genomic analysis revealed antigenic heterogeneity within the VP1 region, a fragment deletion, and insertions at the 5' untranslated region (UTR) and 3A region compared to the genome of the available vaccine strain.
