Complete genome sequence of a porcine orthoreovirus from southern China.

Porcine orthoreoviruses belong to the family Reoviridae and cause mainly mild enteritis in piglets. We present here the complete genome sequence of a novel porcine orthoreovirus strain (GD-1) isolated from a piglet in southern China. Our data will facilitate future investigations of the molecular characteristics and epidemiology of porcine orthoreoviruses.
