Genomic Analysis of Novel Poxvirus Brazilian Porcupinepox Virus, Brazil, 2019.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: We obtained the complete sequence of a novel poxvirus, tentatively named Brazilian porcupinepox virus, from a wild porcupine (Coendou prehensilis) in Brazil that had skin and internal lesions characteristic of poxvirus infection. The impact of this lethal poxvirus on the survival of this species and its potential zoonotic importance remain to be investigated.
