The full-genome sequence of bluetongue virus serotype 15 (BTV-15) strain B105/YN/1996 isolated in China was determined for the first time. The virus was isolated from sentinel cattle in Yunnan Province, China, in 1996. The total size of the BTV-15 strain B105/YN/1996 genome is 19,161 bp in length. Phylogenetic analyses demonstrate that it belongs to the major eastern BTV topotype. This work is the first to document the complete genomic sequence of a BTV-15 strain from China. The sequence information will help determine the geographic origin of Chinese BTV-15 and provide data to facilitate future analyses of the genetic diversity and phylogenetic relationships of BTV strains.
首次测定了在中国分离的蓝舌病病毒15型(BTV-15)毒株B105/YN/1996的全基因组序列。该病毒于1996年在中国云南省的哨兵牛中分离得到。BTV-15毒株B105/YN/1996基因组的总长度为19,161 bp。系统发育分析表明,它属于东部主要的BTV拓扑型。这项工作首次记录了来自中国的BTV-15毒株的完整基因组序列。该序列信息将有助于确定中国BTV-15的地理起源,并为今后分析BTV毒株的遗传多样性和系统发育关系提供数据。
