Prevalence and genomic characteristics of canine kobuvirus in southwest China
Archives of virology(2017)
摘要
To investigate canine kobuvirus (CaKoV) infection in southwest China, 107 fecal samples were collected from dogs with obvious diarrhea in Sichuan and Chongqing regions, China. CaKoV infection was detected in 54 diarrheic samples (50.46%) by RT-PCR targeting a partial fragment (504 bp) of the 3D gene. Comparison of these partial 3D gene sequences from 14 of these CaKoV-positive samples show 95.4%–99.0% nucleotide (nt) identity within this group, and nt identities ranging from 93.1% to 98.2% with previously reported CaKoV 3D gene sequences. Additionally, we amplified five VP1 gene sequences and analyzed the inferred phylogeny. Amino acid (aa) identities of the five VP1 gene sequences were 81.5%–89.4% with those previously reported. Furthermore, one complete CaKoV genome was successfully obtained from a positive sample and designated SMCD-59/CHN/2015. This genome consisted of 8,184 nt, and shared 92.9%–96.6% nt identity (97.6%–98.1% aa identity) with other reported CaKoV genomes. This study provides proof that CaKoV circulates in diarrheic dogs in southwest China, and that these viruses exhibit unique genetic characteristics.
