A novel highly divergent enteric calicivirus in a bovine calf, India

In 2015, a novel highly divergent bovine calicivirus was detected in an Indian calf with enteritis. Phylogenetic analysis linked it to the Nebovirus with only 38.5% sequence identities, emphasizing the need for separate taxonomic classification. Furthermore, PCR screening detected these unique caliciviruses widely in India’s northern states. ### Competing Interest Statement The authors have declared no competing interest.
