Mammarenaviruses are noteworthy zoonotic pathogens, and the main reservoirs are rodent species. We report the detection of a novel mammarenavirus in 6/183 (3.3%) in necropsied European hedgehogs (Erinaceus europaeus) collected in Italy. The whole-genome sequence obtained for 4 strains revealed a marked genetic diversity but a monophyletic origin.
沙粒病毒科哺乳动物病毒属病毒是值得关注的人畜共患病原体,其主要宿主为啮齿类动物。我们报告了在意大利采集的183只经尸检的欧洲刺猬( Erinaceus europaeus )中,有6只(3.3%)检测到一种新型沙粒病毒科哺乳动物病毒属病毒。对4个毒株获得的全基因组序列显示出显著的遗传多样性,但起源为单系。
