Abstract
We report the discovery of the first cetacean pegivirus (family Flaviviridae) using a next-generation sequencing approach. One of two infected bottlenose dolphins had elevated activities of liver enzymes, which may suggest hepatocellular injury. Further research is needed to determine the epidemiology and pathogenicity of dolphin pegivirus.
摘要
我们报告了使用下一代测序方法发现的第一种鲸类禽内瘤病毒（黄病毒科）。两只感染的宽吻海豚中有一只的肝酶活性升高，这可能表明肝细胞损伤。需要进一步研究来确定海豚禽内瘤病毒的流行病学和致病性。
