Full-Genome Sequence of Bluetongue Virus Serotype 1 (BTV-1) Strain Y863, the First BTV-1 Isolate of Eastern Origin Found in China

چکیده
The full-genome sequence of the bluetongue virus serotype 1 (BTV-1) strain Y863, the first BTV-1 isolate of Eastern origin found in China, was determined. The virus was isolated from sheep during a severe outbreak of bluetongue in Shizhong County, Yunnan Province, southwest China, in 1979. The total size of the BTV-1 strain Y863 genome is 19,170 bp. Phylogenetic analyses demonstrate that it belongs to the major "Eastern" BTV topotype. The sequence information provided here will help in understanding the geographical origin and spread of this Chinese isolate of BTV-1, as well as aid in its comparison with global isolates of BTV-1 from sheep, cattle, and other host species origins.

The complete genome sequence of a reassortant field strain of bluetongue virus serotype 16 (BTV-16), isolated from cattle in the Apulia region of Italy in 2002, has been determined by Illumina sequencing. Sequence comparisons of segment 1 (Seg-1) to Seg-10, except Seg-5, show that BTV-16 strain ITL2002 belongs to the major eastern topotype of BTV.

We recently published the complete genome sequences from six bluetongue virus (BTV) isolates from India (belonging to serotypes 1, 2, 3, 10, and 23) (8–13). We have also carried out similar analyses for the BTV reference strains and multiple additional BTV isolates from other geographic regions of the world. The data generated indicate the circulation of BTV genes derived from both eastern and ...

The genome of NIG1982/10, a Nigerian bluetongue virus serotype 16 (BTV-16) strain, was sequenced (19,193 bp). Comparisons to BTV strains from other areas of the world show that all 10 genome segments of NIG1982/10 are derived from a western lineage (w), indicating that it represents a suitable reference strain of BTV-16w.
